To that end, when we shift the problem from 1 reformed ex-con applying to 1 company to a distribution of reformed and non-reformed ex-cons applying to many companies, and consider in general how inefficient hiring practices tend to be in this field, what are some things that could be done to give these companies confidence that the person they hired won't steal from the company?

Perhaps some kind of standardized post-incarceration psychological/behavioral evaluation and certification system?
