Why employment will deny a person with a trespassing charge?

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) restricts how employers may use criminal history when making hiring decisions. An employer may rescind an employment offer based on an individual's criminal history, but only if the nature of the conviction has some connection to the position at issue. For example, an employer could reasonably decide not to hire someone with a theft conviction into a position that would require the individual to handle money. On the other hand, a DUI conviction should not preclude an individual from being hired into a clerical position. What was the position you were seeking? Would a trespassing conviction give an employer cause to doubt whether you are well suited for that particular position? If not, then you may want to file a charg of discrimination with the EEOC. Also, were you merely charged and not convicted? If so, then you may have an even stronger claim. Good luck.

An employer can deny you for a trespassing charge. If it comes up, be honest, explain the situation and bring their attention the fact that this was a one time incident was a misdemeanor, not a felony. An employer will do this because they have to protect their business. If they knowingly hire a person with a criminal record and you do something that is criminal the business is exposed to a possible lawsuit.

Honesty is always the best police so be up front about what happened. The job marked being as bad as it is, employers will use many factors in narrowing the list of applicants
