So I was interviewed a few days ago. This is a white collar, 6-figure job. I was shocked when I googled the manager's name (I wanted to see his LinkedIn) that he's a sex offender. He assaulted a young boy. How could this guy be a manager of a multinational corporation considering he has a criminal conviction.
Well... Corporations are already chucked full of psychopaths, sociopaths in high end positions as it is. Whats another sex offender added into the mix??:roll eyes:
For whatever reason, the high end Corporate positions seem to attract the true SCUM of the earth
What exactly is unfair?if they served their time, there's really no reason to hold it against them as a fairness issue. The victims might feel otherwise but you as an employee? Why?

That's why I italicized the fair bit. Fairness seems to be based on personal expectations, so you can't really judge what's fair and what's not.
Edit: Also, as an employee if I learned this, I am entitled to feel iffy about our company hiring a sexual offender.
Do we expect that once he paid his dues he was just supposed to go off and live on some mountain top ? People have to support themselves and a job is the way to do it in most cases. If he didn't have this job, guess who would be feeding and housing him? Yep, you and me.
At least in this position he is not in contact with kids, so that is good.
Is this hiring manager in contact with vulnerable populations, like children? If not, I don't really see a big issue with this. The best way to prevent reoffending is to allow criminals who have served their time a chance to reenter the workforce.
The OP is talking about a hiring manager, whom decides who to interview, screens people, conducts interviews and reference checks, etc... also being a sexual offender whom managed to get such a prestigious title in a multinational corporation. This might be because the OP thought people with convictions could not get positions like this, or wonders what background checks really pull up, etc.
No one said sexual offenders can't work ever again or be a part of society ever again or live their life ever again. I love all the assumptions that are going on, though. Says a lot about those who are assuming.

Are you sure it not just 2 people with the same name?
