It's not because of your Misdemeanor that you are unable to get a job. In today's economy, finding a job is quite difficult, even for one who has a clean record. Just keep looking, even if it's a job you know you won't like, you know you need to do it for your children. Having a misdemeanor can make it difficult with some jobs. (Not all, just depends on what they require) But many other places hiring will take you without worry.

I often deal with interviews, it may not be because of your misdemeanor that they are not accepting your employee, but because of how you may be presenting yourself. Here's some tips to help give you that higher chance.

Be clean, and dressed nicely. No one wants to hire someone who looks as though they don't care about how they look/smell. Mainly because it could be bad for business.

Keep calm. Fidgeting or nervous behavior can give one a wrong impression.

Practice what you're going to say. Use proper grammar as well as look directly into the persons eyes, not enough to make them uncomfortable but enough to let them know you are listening.

Don't show up more than 10 minutes early to an interview. You could make the interviewer feel as though you have no care or respect for time, making them irritable, and feel rushed. If you don't know where it is right off the bat, go a day or even a few hours in advance to find where it is and how long it will take you to get there.

After the interview (In my opinion this is important, mainly because it shows that this person is willing to work hard and is eager to start working without difficulties) Follow up. Call the next day or if you worry, 2 days after. and continue to call (Not in a harassing way. at least 1 every 2 days.)

I hope these can help you out and keep trying. Good Luck.
