Re: Outsourcing of Technical Writers Employment

Getting a clearance is relatively  simple.

Get a job with a company that has 'any work with the  government'.

A lot of companies that get government jobs have to have  staff on hand, or 
identified for the contract.

If you are relatively  'clean', pass the police checks, have a reasonably 
good credit score, and are  interested in the type of work. you might get 
'cleared' in an interim basis,  depending on the need of the contract.

After that, you will need to fill  out a set of security paperwork that can 
get quite extensive.

That gets  submitted to the security people and the act on it.  Either you 
make it or  you don't.

However, once you get the clearance, and stay there a while,  you can look 
for other opportunities.

Doors do open, they might lead to  better things.

I say, 'look for the opportunities, not the  roadblocks.'

Sincerely,

Harry
