Dear ___(Employer’s name)___:

Please accept this letter of explanation regarding my conviction(s) of _(your


conviction)__ that occurred in _(year of conviction)__, for which I completed the
terms of my sentence. Since this time, I have __(lots of evidence of
rehabilitation)__. These experiences helped me acquire skills such as __(several
examples)__, which will make me a strong addition to your team.

***only if eligible*** (To back that up, the U.S. Labor Department is willing, at no
cost to you, to post a $5,000 Fidelity bond for a period of six months with you on
my behalf. Additionally, the IRS offers a one-time $2,400 Work Opportunity Tax
Credit to employers who hire ex-felons. These employer benefits are available to
you through the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic
Development at no fee and with very little paperwork.)

I would very much like the opportunity to answer any questions you may have
and to tell you more about why I will be an outstanding employee. Whatever your
decision, I thank you for your time and consideration.

Respectfully,

(sign your name)

__(your name)__
