These won't be real jobs since most of these criminals are illiterate black thugs and unemployable. It's just more welfare.

Every inmate who leaves a Big Apple jail after serving a sentence will have a job waiting for him or her, under a new city-funded initiative, Mayor de Blasio announced Wednesday.
When asked why ex-convicts were being guaranteed work over unemployed residents who haven’t broken the law — including city high-school and college graduates — Hizzoner insisted the initiative, which will cost taxpayers $10 million a year, is a “smart investment for everyone.”
“Getting out of the cycle of crime and incarceration is in everyone’s interest,” he said.
Under his Jails to Jobs initiative, “transitional employment” — which is voluntary and lasts up to eight weeks — will be offered to an average of 8,500 ex-cons a year in an array of fields.
For some former inmates who lack basic skills, the gigs will be nothing more than paid job training, the city said.
