Home Depot adheres to the 'Ban the Box' initiative, which means they don't ask about an applicant's criminal record on the initial application. Instead, they conduct a background check before extending a job offer. While Home Depot does hire individuals with felony convictions, the outcome may depend on the nature of the felony.
Serious violent crimes, sex offenses, theft, or forgery convictions may impact the hiring decision. However, each candidate is assessed individually, taking into account qualifications, interview performance, and the specifics of their felony.
So, while a felony record may be a consideration, it's not an automatic disqualification and strong interview performance can lead to job opportunities.
