I have zero experience with this issue, but someone I met fundraising a few projects ago launched this, which is aimed at solving your particular issue:

[70 Million Staffing](https://www.70millionstaffing.com/) - focused on hiring people with criminal records and its counterpart: [Commissary Club](https://app.commissary.club/) - a social network for ex-cons.

Also, maybe now with the new emphasis on remote work, people with criminal records have a better chance at getting hired?
