More details to this question:
I am a convicted felon from 2001. I got a job through an employment agency that asked if i had been sentenced within the last 7 years, I said no. The company I was temporary with wants to hire me full time but will do a complete back ground check. Ive been temp for 6 months. Can they deny my hiring after all this time? Im in new jersey and my crime was armed robbery, with no weapon, just the threat of one.

i would have the conviction expunged for this job and all other jobs in the future. what was the actual conviction ? certain convictions cannot be expunged. i would apply for the expungement and tell the employer that your record will be expunged in 3-4 months. ed dimon, esq.
