Job Interview With a Criminal Record

I know a young lady who got into a fight, so now she has a criminal record. She's
having trouble getting hired, even though she's been on several interviews. When 
they get to to the question about criminal history, she's honest with the interviewer
about her record, but she feels it's still keeping her from getting the job. I told her
next time she should try looking the interviewer in the eye and say, "Please give me 
a chance, I know I can do a good job."

Sometimes it might not seem like it, but there are people willing to give
you a chance, even if you have a criminal record.
