Re: Question about security clearance

["Gene Kim-Eng" <techwr -at- genek -dot- com>]

Companies don't need "excuses" not to hire someone, 
especially not in a down economy.  For most employers,
the ideal candidate is someone who has enough direct
experience to hit the ground running but not so much
that they'll jump ship for a better offer the moment things
start to get better, and who has a squeaky-clean 
background check with no legal or financial issues that
might be a distraction or worse, a temptation to engage
in theft of real or intellectual property.  In good times,
that ideal might comprimised and some added risk 
taken with a candidate who "has issues," but when 
every job posting brings in hundreds of  resumes from 
people who fit the "ideal candidate" mold, you can
pretty much forget about out-of-the-box thinking from
most people in the recruiting chain.

If they don't want to hire me, they'll come up with an excuse.
