   You could try volunteering for something. This will get you work experience and good references.

   The best policy for that is totally counter intuitive. When you go to an interview, bring the misdemeanor up for discussion right at the start. That way you aren’t on the defensive when trying to explain it, and the interviewer sees it in the best possible light. They will also appreciate that you brought it up at the start, and that sort of integrity WILL greatly increase your chance of getting the job.

   If you pretend it didn’t happen until they ask about it, you’ve already been beaten.

   I agree with the volunteer idea. You will get experience, it may turn into a job, and if not, they will give you a good reference.

   Minor mistake, compared to others. Phone this Original College, & make
   an appointment to talk with manager ( college dean ) . Be prepared with
   a Printed personally signed ( appology ) . The Idea is you are looking
   for Official Forgiveness from this Dumb Act . If the Manager,( dean)
   Accepts your Mature, Personal Visit , he ( hopefully) will sign a release
   of your Guilt .
   This release will carry Appropriate responsibility on your
   part, & make job hunting much easier . Your Only other choice is
   apply for jobs, & do not indicate any ( misdemeanor ) then when hired
   do the best job possible, build seniority, & make yourself ” Very difficult
   to replace ! ” Good luck !
