You don't need a USA security clearance to be hired by White Oak. But you should be qualified to obtain a USA security clearance.

- raffi 17y agoBack when I was interested in that whole "job" thing, I interviewed with White Oak Technologies. I don't say this lightly: They have the most programmer friendly HR team I've seen in a tech company. When I applied they responded quickly and moved through the process quickly. Bruce and Dave (the HR guys) really seemed to get programmers. When they wanted to do an on-site interview it was clear they had a process and the details were taken care of. I interviewed at some other companies that didn't quite have their HR act together. Here were the things that got me: 1. Having to "ask" for a flight to the on-site interview 2. Waiting three weeks between stages of the process 3. HR people that look at programmers as common cattle (although to be fair, we probably do the same to them). If you're bigger than a startup -- talent will walk away from you. To bring this back to WOTI, these guys realize this.
