Dear Mr. Mayo,

For the past 12 years, I have been struggling to get and keep jobs due to having a felony.  I found your website after watching a YouTube video (How to get a job with a felony, etc…) I’ve been to several agencies here in Charlotte, NC that specialize in helping ex-offenders obtain employment/rebuild their lives.  None of them can compare to the EXCELLENT information you have provided in your book From Jail to a Job.  I found your book yesterday.  I have an interview today.  Though I wasn’t able to read all the way through to the end, I was able to skim and get enough information and confidence to ace today’s interview.  Even if I don’t get this position I’ll be ready for the next.  Thank you for all that you do.

Sincerely,

L G

SO AM I acknowledges Eric Mayo and his continued efforts and a dedication to being a “World Changer”! I have read your book and used it as a tool at my previous place(s) of employment and I highly recommend it. Ex-offenders have a place in my heart too and I believe they should be given a fair chance as well. I say to you continue to break down barriers in this bitter-sweet world. “I am my brother’s keeper…” is what Jesus spoke not ” I am my successful, good looking, rich, educated, etc…brother’s keeper….” Who’s your brother? Let’s get it right people! Give an ex-offender a chance to re-integrate back into society and become a positive change in this world. SO AM I salutes Eric Mayo this month as “World Changer” Thank you Eric for being a “World Changer…”

From Jail to a Job, by Eric Mayo Okay – before you skip over this one (for those of you who have never been incarcerated) – consider investing in this book. For my dollar, this is hands-down the best, most practical job search guide out there – and it’s not even available on amazon.com!

Read what the reviewers at Serious Reading have to say about this book.

In most parts of the world, it is not easy to get a job as an ex-convict no matter your skills and expertise. Eric Mayo, the author of this book, has been helping ex-offenders and felons get employment for over a decade now. He does this by teaching them the various personal development and life skills that they need to survive in the competitive world. Unlike other similar books in the market, From Jail to a Job provides a verified systematic guide that you can use to get a job despite having a criminal record. Since its release into the market, it has helped hundreds, if not thousands, of ex-offenders to apply and get jobs in different parts of the world. The author, Eric, did a great job to compile factual tips that you can use to earn the trust and respect of your employer. He uses a simple language that is easy to understand, and all the tips are pragmatic.

Mr. Mayo provides some practical advice for those being released from jail or prison and engaged in a job search. I have seen, first hand, in working with women in a re-entry program, how daunting it can be to find a job with a future, or any job for that matter. They struggle with how to explain the break in employment and how to answer interview questions. This provides some reasonable answers.
