Does Anthem hire felons?

Yes, Anthem does hire felons. They are Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) employers. However, the company does perform a background check during the hiring process.

Anthem hires felons on a case-by-case basis and takes many things into account, including the nature of the crime and how long ago the conviction was. Anthem is more hesitant to hire individuals convicted of crimes involving violence, sexual misconduct, theft, or hate crimes.
