How to get hired at ADT with a felony
Even though we rated your odds of getting hired as low, it’s definitely still possible to improve your chances to get a job at ADT with a felony.
As with any employment opportunity, it all starts with a good application. Resume writing tends to be challenging, there are steps you can take to make sure you submit a good application.
For example, a career center is an excellent resource for finding employment. They can look at your resume and help you improve it. If you don’t have access to that type of resource, you should at least allow a friend or family member to check for errors.
The types of skills you decide to highlight on your resume may depend partly on which category of employment you are looking into. For example, people that want a job in installation will probably want to demonstrate their technical skills. If you’ve worked as a handyperson or in any other job that requires skill with tools, those are the types of jobs you will want to promote.
However, if you’re applying for a position in sales or the call center, you will probably want to highlight your customer service skills. This could include anything from working as a clerk to positions in the foodservice industry.
While the interview can be very intimidating, there are ways you can make it go smoother. For one thing, you’ll want to dress as professionally as you can manage.
There are some charities that donate or loan out professional attire to people in need.
You will also want to make sure you cover your tattoos and remove any unconventional piercings. As a security company, ADT does what it can to promote a clean, professional image. Presenting yourself in a way that compliments that image will go a long way towards helping you to get hired.
Last but not least, just be yourself! The interview will go a lot smoother if you feel comfortable!
