Depends on what market, for defense or intelligence work it is very high...if you want to be a fed why even mess with consulting?
Many paths to a fed career and consulting is one of them. Skills here are very applicable there. In private sector cyber strategy and applying to political science masters. What’s the best way to network into one of those accounts?
Not sure about PwC but getting into fed work is usually super easy, the issue is finding interesting fed work that isn’t staff aug (most is)
I have a public trust clearance and had no problems with lots of opportunities at Booz Allen. Secret/top secret are more important for defense/intel work. It can be hard to find someone to sponsor your clearance, though. Lots of clients want cleared staff but are unwilling to take on the expense and time of sponsoring a clearance. If you really want a clearance best bet is to try To get a project in the defense/intel market and (even if it’s a project you’re not super excited about) since that will give you the highest likelihood of getting sponsored for a clearance.
