When you are applying to role and then trying to network/follow up, are you reaching out to recruiters at the company, or hiring managers you think are aligned to the role? Or picking a few from both categories? I know there is no one networking strategy that works. Just wondering if you have more success actually getting interview by trying to get your application/get noticed in font of recruiters or via employees with hiring authority???

What happens if you quit your job while in the process of getting a clearance?

Do Leidos, SAIC, and other mostly-fed consulting businesses pay bonuses to all levels? If so, what does a typical bonus target look like? Booz Allen does not pay bonuses until you get to the Senior Associate level (1 step below Director) and I think that impacts employee performance and work ethic pretty dramatically. I’m wondering if not paying bonuses is common to federal contracting because of how the contracts or priced, or if this is something unique to Booz Allen.
