About
Honest Jobs is the nation's largest fair-chance employment platform, helping businesses hire formerly incarcerated job seekers quickly, safely, and efficiently. The company partners with over 1,500 companies across industries and has built a national referral network spanning corrections, probation and parole, and hundreds of nonprofit reentry organizations. Thousands of justice-impacted individuals use the platform each month to find employment. Honest Jobs' proprietary technology ensures candidates' convictions do not conflict with job duties, leading to higher pass rates through background screening. Job seekers find work up to 7x faster, and employers benefit from reduced turnover. The company was acquired by Orijin in 2025 to create an end-to-end education-to-employment pathway for justice-involved individuals.
