Top Secret Clearance

donovan · 04-05-2011, 01:55 PM

...In a nut shell, I'm trying to broaden my options. Where can I look for jobs that are hiring people who currently have Top Secret Clearances and mechanical back grounds?

JayKay335i · 04-05-2011, 01:56 PM

You're asking people on a forum?

I dont see a bright future

donovan · 04-05-2011, 01:58 PM

Don't worry I thought about that before posting it. I'm not jobless and I wont be for quite some time, just trying to locate some information to start researching for the future...few years down the road. Simple homework and I thought I would ask some of the lovely people on m3post.

Well, I can give you some pointers on some "top sheekret" jobs ...but then I have to kill you!

Don't top secret clearances, etc. go with a position or a need rather than with a person? In other words, wouldn't you lose your clearance once you leave the circumstances that triggered the need in the first place?

Hmm...i'm in the same boat as you. I don't have a top secret I just have a secret clearance.

fucking LOL at the tags

jpsum · 04-05-2011, 02:59 PM

Agencies that require any type of clearance don't care if you already have the clearance or not. They want to know if you are skilled to do the job. Being able to obtain clearance is secondary in the selection process - like medical exam or physical fitness, etc.

donovan · 04-05-2011, 03:05 PM

Clearances are extremely expensive and such...I'm sure its skills and the clearance that matters. I could have both for the right particular job or be gaining the other particular skills very soon.

bmwmthree · 04-05-2011, 03:08 PM

OP, can you post pics of your track-ready M3?

McMuffin · 04-05-2011, 03:28 PM

I was gonna say the military, but I see you're in Germany. I don't think the US is hiring KKK members yet.

donovan · 04-05-2011, 03:33 PM

^ Not sure I follow please elaborate on your smart ass comment.

I would assume he has clearance because he is already in the armed forces and he's stationed overseas?

Also, are you seriously going to make fun of Germans on a BMW site?

i also assumed OP was military stationed in germany.

JayKay335i · 04-05-2011, 03:48 PM

Not to mention that a lot of KKK organizations separate them selves from neo-nazis and want no association with them.

solefald · 04-05-2011, 03:49 PM

I get hit up all the time by someone looking for a sysadmin with clearance.

Apparently in my field people are either criminals, foreigners or drug addicts, so employers having a really hard time filling positions.
