Does anyone know of any (major) companies that don't do background checks?

Question

I am trying to find a job but unfortunatly I have something on my record from when I was much younger. It usually turns people right away.

It's a long story but I was convicted as an adult for something that happened when I was 15.

I know if you're upfront and honest with companies sometimes they give you a break. Unfortunatly before I was convicted I worked at Blockbuster as a Store Manager and was in the position to hire people. Either I would turn people away that had convictions or Corporate wouldn't let us hire them.

Knowing what I know now I would give people a second chance. But most people haven't experienced this.

I vote there are no good answers. I give up on this site. This question was posted 6 days ago and all I got was 2 answers. One of them spam and the other no help at all. I'm going to put this to vote but I recommend just picking no best answer.

Answer 1

In the US, all major companies do. Even smaller companies are doing so, with the new push in illegal immigration issues.
