Does AutoZone Hire Felons?
We are sorry but AutoZone most likely does NOT hire felons as far as we know. They do an extensive background check via a third party and will not hire you if any felony convictions on your record. We have heard from some of our readers that are on state probation without a felony conviction and were hired. As you most likely already know it can be hard to find a job as a felon so we suggest checking our jobs page for up to date felon friendly employers.
If you have any further information regarding if AutoZone please contact Help For Felons.
I am not a convicted felon, but I am actively on state probation and was hired by AutoZone.
Awesome, Thank you for the information!
Yes! AZ hired felons! I was convicted of a felony in 2009 and was hired in 14′ I am now a district manager with 12 stores in VA. It’s more about the person than the background. Put in your application for a store then visit the store and talk to the manager repeatedly and force an interview. They wound up loving me and overriding hr to hire me. It’s not easy, but if you’re good, they will want you.
Did they mention the felony to u?
When do they take the background ✔
It depends on state and depends on the felony yes they do an extensive backround check that goes UP TO 10 years back depending on state….im in AZ and work in the distribution center …they also do drug testing
So I think it may vary state to state but my felony from 2007 popped up on my background check, I’m pretty sure I’m not going to get hired but I haven’t heard from them yet. I will update when I get the answer.
Just wanted to let you guys know that Auto Zone DOES hire felons. My husband just got hired here this week. They did do a background check through Edge Information Management, Inc. They ONLY go back 7 years, so when he got his report back, it was clean as a whistle because he was convicted in 2007 and spent 2 years in prison. Just wanted to give you guys some hope and share our experience. Because we searched high and low looking for answers and almost didn’t apply for the position. Glad we did. Also, they do not do drug… Read more »
Thank you so much for the information. This is very helpful and I will change the article information once I hear from a few other people.
AWESOME! I’ve just went on an interview with AutoZone 01/19/17 and it went great! Just had some concerns about my background! If they only go back 7 years instead if 30 I’m Hired! Lol. It’s a crying shame you cannot get a descent job Beacuse of your background. One day hopefully the government will Permanently removed ALL background checks. Hire the person sitting in front of you @ the interview NOT the person he/she was in the PAST! “Keep Hope Alive” ❤
