The good news is, even if your criminal record renders you inadmissible, depending on the crime, you might still be able to ask the U.S. government to overlook ("waive") the crime for the purpose of obtaining legal employment in the United States.
Your application will be denied if you fall within the scope of one of the inadmissibility grounds as set out under US law. In particular, your current and/or past actions, such as drug or criminal activities may make you ineligible for a visa.
