People with security clearances — what’s the best way to approach getting a clearance these days? I used to have a TS/SCI w/ CI Poly but have been away from Fed work for many years so I’m sure my clearance is expired now

Find an employer with a contract with a client that is willing to sponsor one. In general, clients are stingier these days about sponsoring clearances than they used to be. It used to be that joining us, Deloitte GPS, AFS, etc would usually be enough to have a client sponsor you for a clearance, but now they generally want you to actually be working on a contract that requires it for the client to sponsor you.

You need to be sponsored by your current employer and/or a client.

Government is probably the most viable sponsor. Timelines vary, but prepare for at least a year or more for the investigation and adjudication process for TS level.

Clearly, you are a spy.

Has anyone left healthcare and is now really happy? I’m an MSN, RN with 12 years hospital experience. I’m burned out and tired of making crap pay. I have an opportunity outside of healthcare that would pay more and challenge me in new ways that I haven’t experienced before. It’s a total shift that would really heal my work-life balance, job satisfaction and budget. My only fear is that I would not be using the license and degree that I worked so hard for. I would appreciate any input!!!!

How do I get a job as a Mechanical Engineer if I dont have experience?

I couldn’t get an internship while in school. I have a BS in ME and projects from school under my belt. I’ve also passed the FE exam. I’ve been mostly just doing CAD for a company for the last year by creating minimally dimensioned drawings and moving parts around in assemblies. I want to evolve in my career and be doing more. I worked so hard to earn my degree and I feel like I’m not even using it. But who will hire me?

Offer from AMZN @ 160 TC, just got promo @ D to M, comp statements don't come out until first week in June. Would probably stay if comp came in equal or slightly above. What are the chances?

Was hoping AMZN would be higher but they pegged the role a lvl lower than originally discussed during the process...so here we are.

Not sure if I should play my hand and push for more to stay or if they will just say "wait 5 weeks or here is the door"
