If you’re wondering, “Does Walmart hire felons?” The answer is yes, but not everyone. When you have been convicted of any major crime, it’s usually classified as a felony. If you have been charged with and convicted of a misdemeanor, it can complicate your ability to find employment in the future, but it is far easier to have a misdemeanor charge expunged from your record so that potential future employers can’t see it if and when they run a background check.
