I understand if I declare myself bankrupt that certain job choices will be restricted what are these and does this still count if the bankruptcy has been discharged

Even after a bankruptcy has been fully "discharged", the knowledge that you previously filed bankruptcy to avoid paying money you owed to organizations or other people is still "out there", just not in an official sense. That knowledge will never stop following you. Avoid filing bankruptcy if you possibly can, it's a terrible idea.
Think about your question the other way around; imagine you own a huge corporation with dozens of different kinds of jobs in it. For which of those jobs would YOU hire a person that you knew had made a concious decision not to pay off debts they owed?
Most of the time, bankruptcy is an option because of debts you have incurred through circumstances completely beyond your control, but it had even less to do with the people who don't get their money as a consequence!
Negotiate with your creditors to achieve partial settlements (tell them your only other option is bankruptcy). If I owed you $1000, wouldn't you rather I gave you $100 a year for some period of time rather than nothing at all?

I don't know but I have a friend that filed for bankrupt and she still work for the school district. I think a bankrupt should not have nothing to do with your job skills. If you filed, its your business.

Working at a bank...working security with money...working with the FBI...also working as a police officer....they check it all! Basically any job where you are trusted to be near money or deal with situations with money. But don't worry possibly alot of those places may not even be jobs that you want!

It depends on what you mean by bankrupt.
Bush and Blair are morally bankrupt, for example, but they are still able to retain their jobs.
So I guess with enough dishonesty you can pretty much work anywhere if you truly set your mind to it.

I think you cannot be the director of a firm until its discharged, and you can never be a school governor or ward councillor. I'm sure there's more, but I don't know.

I wouldn't employ you... simply because I'm self employed and the amount of times I've seen screwed over by anal pollops declaring bankruptsy has gone far beyond a joke.

I had no idea. Isn't this discrimination or something. We'll it's not the first time I've heard it. Can't we do whatever we want, legally of course, as long as our heart desires? See my profile!
