> Must be able and willing to obtain a Top Secret security clearance.
I've had a confidential security clearance for years because of my job working on government military applications. I remember the process being insanely rigorous. I wonder how much longer it would take to get a Top Secret clearance?
- the_jeremy 6y agoIn 2017 it took >18 months (I don't know how much greater, because I couldn't handle being paid to do busywork for so long). I would assume it takes longer for people farther along in their career (I was fresh), but would probably be faster because you've held a confidential. Other anecdata: 60% of my cohort got a clearance in less than 8 months (I believe their sponsoring project paid for expediting?), at least one person was >3 years in queue last I checked.
