Hello Jam,
Your particular charge is what is classified as an "integrity" crime. In the eyes of some, you cannot be trusted. This means you will have a very difficult time getting a job anywhere money or valuables are at risk. You will definitely need to change your line of work.
My suggestion to you is to contact your local One-stop career center. They have a lot of services that can help unemployed people in different situations get jobs. Many of the counselors at these centers have experience assisting people with criminal backgrounds. You may also find success applying to smaller companies that tend to do less exhaustive background checks than larger companies. Ex-offenders and felons often have more success finding jobs when they know where to look.
