Hey! I am really interested in a career in a dispensary!! I’m having trouble coming up with that type of money to pay for a ticket…got any suggestions?? The cannabis chef, or trimmer/harvester, is definitely the best choices for me..please let me know any advice, suggestions anything..thank you 🙂
I’m interested, but I was told if u have ever been arrested for marijuana u can’t work w it. Is that correct? It has been over 15 yrs & was a misdemeanor.
Jennifer, the regulations prohibit people with some types of felonies from working in cultivation facilities or dispensaries, so you should be fine with just a misdemeanor.
As long as you don’t have felonies within the last 10 years or if it was expunged sincve then and you can pass a federal background check you’re fine.

Am interested in working cultivation or dispensary
I am a cannibus patient. I am trying to learn all I can. I also have 25+ years experience in the medical field. I also taught medical terminology and taught customer service with the Walmart Home Office. I also processed claims for Walmart. I have 3 qualifying conditions. I have been on opiates for years and I am so looking forward to pain relief without opiates. Should I bring a resume to the training on Saturday in Fort Smith this coming Saturday? Thank so much.
Vickie, it wouldn’t hurt to bring a resume just to be prepared. I do know of several dispensary applicants who are planning on attending.
If I was convicted of marijuana sales in California can I still qualify for a job in Arkansas cannabis industry?
It depends on if it was a felony that is still on your record. Applicants with an ‘excluded felony offense’ on their record will not be able to receive a license to work. We don’t have a great definition for ‘excluded felony offense’ yet from the ABC.
