Once again, not necessarily. A few states extend FCRA-like provisions for felony reporting. Most don’t. Even if your state does extend those protections, most have salary caps: if you are (for example) a felon in Washington applying for a job over $20k in annual salary, the 7-year reporting exemption doesn’t apply to you. Other states offer an exemption for misdemeanors but exclude felons entirely. (edit: I had MA in my head but it was WA I was trying to remember, changed :-))
