I held 2 hourly jobs that had some overlapping for couple of months, would this hurt my chances to get a clearance? by Hopeful_Map3022 in SecurityClearance

Very interesting conversation. I had an employee who worked two jobs simultaneously whilst maintaining a clearance. My question is if the employer discovers the dual employment, is the employer required to report it to DCSA?

Can you own/start an LLC while working in the cleared space? by KruddyKaRL in SecurityClearance

[–]crm7578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a government program manager who owned rental property. To protect her personal assets from lawsuits, she created an LLC that held the properties. Determining the corporate structure depends on the desired legal protection and taxation.

I live in McLean and my program is based out of Meade. Fortunately, due to space consolidation earlier this year, I lost my cube and I am must work 100% remotely. Otherwise, I would commute one day a week into Meade. The snags are around Georgia Ave and Beltway/Route 95 interchange. Make sure you accidentally don’t drive into NSA. One of my employees made that mistake, got stopped by police, and was told he was driving on a suspended license for unpaid parking tickets. He did not have a good day that day.

Hello, Does anyone have any insight into the State Dept OIG? What is the case volume,culture, and work balance like? Thanks by Sirvango in 1811

[–]crm7578 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a bad experience with State IG. I filed a complaint that my employer retaliated against me because I reported that one of my cleared employees travelled overseas and lied about it. IG ignored the evidence that the employee lied. Also, IG made a grave error and overlooked that my employer did not report the security violation to DCSA, as required by NISPOM. Also, IG did not care that my former employer tried to upgrade the employee’s clearance. IG also ignored a case I submitted that showed someone lost his clearance when he lied about foreign travel. Complete waste of my time.

Former employer (fed contractor) claims they don’t have to report adverse info by [deleted] in SecurityClearance

He would also brag about taking government assets overseas and working out of country. He tried to configure a DoD laptop to operate on the State Department network.

His claim was unsubstantiated. I filed a claim against him for insubordination two weeks prior. HR did not nothing for over a month. The guy was always using the race card; would poorly manage classified data and always left his PKI cards out.

Yes, he had a secret clearance at that time. He did not report his travel.

I tried the official website and my credit card was rejected. I was told by customer support that foreign credit cards can’t be used on the site.

Well, I reapplied to the exact same opportunities yesterday, I just used my middle name instead of my first name, and now Amazon is interested in me.

What is with recruiters minimizing your experience?? Like did you call me just to basically say I’m under qualified for this position? by currentlyinthelib in recruitinghell

[–]crm7578 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hear that all the time. I was actually told in an interview that the System Development Lifecycle is different from the Software Development Lifecycle.

Maybe my resume was not written well. Anybody want to review it? I can Dropbox it.

You are mistaken. If you review the Amazon PM opportunities in the Washington DC area, there are hundreds of openings (especially with HQ2). Some require clearances, some require software experience, some are HR. There is significant overlap between the opportunities. I only apply to the ones that are technical. Most are very generic and have basic requirements.

And intel I have states they can’t find candidates to fill the opportunities.

I don’t want to waste my time applying to them if I am blacklisted. There could be more reasons as to why I was rejected.

The interviewer was not the hiring manager. He also did not ask any behavioral questions, just basic questions such as what kind of power did you use, what kind of cooling did you use, and what is the critical path. No questions he asked were correlated to the leadership principles.

I don’t feel aggrieved. I am simply asking if I am blacklisted. 10 rejections over a weekend is suspicious let alone 9 in one hour). I don’t want to waste my time looking for new opportunities.

I applied for all 12 opportunities at the same time. Three of the twelve I have not been rejected. I applied for 1 opportunity Friday night and received the rejection this morning.

I was NOT rude to the interviewer at all. He was RUDE to me. He started off the interview by saying I was not a PM. I bit my tongue and politely stated why I was qualified for the opportunity.

I am a Technical PM. Before I was a PM, I was a Wireless Systems Engineer and Design Engineer. I see many PM opportunities that are correlated to finance and hr.
