What do they mean

they said we don't work with that law if you've got a conviction then your excluded from the job application.

They don't obey the law then, seriously you appear to have a water tight case, I'd seek opinions from the CAB becasue they can't get away with doing this

2 jobs I've applied for over the last 2 months have all involved having a CRB records check, both of the firms have said that the rehabilitation of offenders act does not come into it when they look at your forms. Don't know what's going off but it stinks beyond anything.
