First, they need a legal address. They need a social security number (and they need to know what that number is). They need identification and proof of citizenship - and that is true for ALL employees, not just immigrants. Full-blooded Americans, whose parents were Americans and their parents were Americans - need proof of citizenship and have to fill out an I-9 form. They have to have at least some manner of reasonable tolerable hygiene and access to clothes and shoes that fit them. They have to not be obviously diseased. They have to be sober and not actively in the throes of addiction. In many cases, they have to pass a drug test. They have to have reliable transportation (or be applying for a job where transportation is provided).
ALL of these things are needed of ALL employees in ALL jobs, and that's before you even check to see if they're qualified for the position. Many jobs these days require that you fill out the application online, they don't offer paper applications, or have job kiosks where you can apply on site.
Most homeless people lack at least SOME of these basic, minimal requirements that allow anyone to APPLY for (not even get) a job.
