A friend is applying for a consultant position that requires active secret clearance but he does not have one. Will consulting companies still consider him if he’s eligible?

If it's in the listed requirements and he doesn't meet it, I might refer him to another group but would not retain for the listed position.

.... if your friend doesn’t have the clearance why not just apply to another position ?

Ya probably not, they likely need someone now and a secret can take a year to get. But even they want to enter the federal space there are plenty of other roles

Other internship options include start-up or consulting.
