Finding a job after BK

Has anyone had to find a job after filing BK?
I know that employers ask the question "have you ever filed bk", since I will have to answer yes will this disqualify me automatically from getting the job? If I am upfront with them and explain the situation, what are the chances of still getting a job.
Thanks in advance.
I'll be looking for a job in a year or maybe two, but I most definitively will be looking at large firms and corporations because of the nature of my profession. Chemist.

It is against the law to discriminate against you because you filed BK

Some positions that require individuals to work with cash/monies require employees/applicants to have good credit.
