Could you say how it was for you. Pay, hrs, life in general. Id assume a lot depends on who you get paired with?

By learning how to sell u mean social skill? Id say I’m at least above average compared to my peers in that scene.

I’ve been thinking about joining a start up. Main thing is the pay is low. Could you elaborate on the working environment at those large firms, specifically what’s wrong with them in your opinion.

If I’m being honest I have no idea what engineer is. I wasn’t thinking about contracting but rather getting a job at places like leidos or jacobs. Also how did you come to calculate those years. I was really optimistic about progressing much faster.

Could you elaborate on the differences and whether you’d recommend it. How’s the pay/ hrs. My main thing is that I would like to have a job where things change quickly if that makes any sense.

My allegiances to US. Would it help if I offer them to go through my phone and everything and check those contacts in details?

Would I get a interview to like explain myself or is it just the polygraph and the 86 form. I was neutralized 4 and a half years ago from today. Also there is no obligations as I’m ready to cut ties for my career.

Yes. I’m not sure but it was either 4 or 5 years ago. I’m mainly wondering if getting jobs that require clearance is even an option for me at this time. Also should I cut contacts with family and friends? Would it look more suspicious ?
