And its just the fricking height of stupidity to keep interviewing a person who at the end will not get the job anyways because he has a felony.

Even if the felony is something like forgetting to return a video tape?

And have you never dealt with HR recruiters as a hiring manager? We aren’t just talking about felons here.

They look for ANY REASON to put resumes into the pass pile, and sometimes the reason can be super arbitrary. You get a Puritan one, and the hiring manager never hears about the candidate because of a misdemeanor back in college.
