Do you want to be right, or do you want to be employed?

Marcus had two choices. He could "check" his supervisor and lose the job by 5:00 PM, or he could get the shipment out and keep his weekend plans with his daughter. He realized that "winning" the argument meant losing his life outside those walls. He shifted his focus from his ego to his paycheck.

๐“๐ก๐ž ๐‹๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐จ๐ง:
Step 2: Focus on the "Outcome."
In the streets, the outcome might be "respect." In the workplace, the outcome is "longevity."

Ask yourself: "What happens if I react the way I want to?"

Compare that to: "What happens if I stay calm?"

Keep your eyes on the prize: The life you are building.

Your first reaction is usually your most expensive one.

When Marcusโ€™s supervisor barked an order in front of the whole team, Marcus felt that familiar heat in his chest. "Heโ€™s trying to punk me," he thought. But instead of snapping back, he took a three-second breath. He looked around. He noticed his boss was sweating, the shipment was late, and everyone was stressed. It wasn't about Marcus; it was about the clock.

๐“๐ก๐ž ๐‹๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐จ๐ง:
Step 1: Analyze the "Why."
Before you react, ask yourself: Why is this happening?

Is this person stressed?

Is there a deadline?

Are they just having a bad day?

Or is this a "Process" issue rather than a "Personal" attack?

When you understand the why, you take the power away from the what.

While the French version is technically correct, did you know that many digital hiring systems (ATS) actually prefer no accents because it avoids system compatibility issues?

๐‡๐ž๐ซ๐žโ€™๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ก๐ฒ:

โœ… ATS Friendly: Many Applicant Tracking Systems (the software that "reads" your resume) can struggle with special characters. Using accents can sometimes result in your text looking like "๐’“?๐’”๐’–๐’Ž?" to a computer.

โœ… Modern Standard: In the US, the non-accented version is the most common and widely accepted for digital applications.

Marcus walked into his first day on the warehouse floor feeling like he'd won the lottery. After three years away, he finally had a paycheck and a path forward. But by week three, a coworkerโ€™s slick comment about his speed had Marcusโ€™s heart racing and his fists clenching. In the past, that situation had one ending. Now, he had to decide if his pride was worth his freedom.

The #1 reason returning citizens lose their job in the first year isnโ€™t a lack of skillโ€”itโ€™s poor conflict resolution. Youโ€™ve done the hard partโ€”getting hired. Now, save your career.

To survive the workplace, you need high-level Social and Process awareness. This isn't about "selling out"; it's about "staying in."

Tag a case manager who teaches these essential soft skills!

We've covered the 3 key protections of the CA Fair Chance Act. The ultimate takeaway is this: Focus 100% on your qualifications and professional presentation during the application and interview phase.

Address your history only if required after a conditional offer is made.

Your Next Step:

Apply with confidence.

Knock the interview out of the park.

Use your legal knowledge to protect your rights!

The CA Fair Chance Act limits what information employers can legally look at, even after a conditional offer is made!

Employers are legally prohibited from asking about or considering information regarding arrests that did not lead to a conviction, participation in diversion programs, or sealed/expunged convictions.

If the record is sealed or expunged, it's generally off-limits and should not be used against you. Know which parts of your record are protected.

An employer cannot ask about or consider your criminal history (including through initial background checks) before they have made a formal, conditional offer of employment.

This is your biggest protection! It ensures that you are judged primarily on your qualifications and interview performance.

Why this matters: Your history is only considered after they have decided they want to hire you, and only if it directly impacts the job duties. Don't feel pressured to share details until that conditional offer is on the table!

Share this with someone who needs to hear it!

Employers with 5+ employees cannot include a checkbox or question about conviction history on the initial job application. They must "Ban the Box".

This is critical! It means that your history should not even enter the conversation until after you've had a chance to demonstrate your professional value.

If you see a conviction history question on an initial application, know that it may be a violation of the CA Fair Chance Act.

What to do: Focus on landing the interview, not answering the box!

Tomorrow, we dive into background checks. Stay tuned!
