Here’s a LinkedIn hack for finding a company to sponsor your security clearance. Usually requires having IT experience in said field, but they sponsor for entry level/help desk positions a lot as well. Search “sponsor clearance” & filter to Content. Hundreds of recruiter posts

Usually must be willing to relocate to wherever they are hiring for! If you’re lucky and they’re in your area already then you’re set. I seen the most sponsorships for obviously the DMV area, all over Texas, Cali, & Washington.

As a civilian, getting a company to sponsor your for a security clearance is difficult but it’s more than possible if you navigate it the right way! I know 6 people (only 2 prior service) who’ve been sponsored this past year alone.

If you want to know the benefits of getting a clearance as a sure fire way of making 6 figures even in an entry level position cop @capital_sb Defense Industry Guide. This ain’t just a return on investment, it’s a return on life https://gumroad.com/l/defenseindustry

The role of ROI is to produce a higher ROL

Also, get the CompTIA Security+ certification before applying. It’ll be required & every so often they’ll give you a 6-month waiver to obtain it, but it looks better if you’re prepared. Some companies will hire you just for having the required certs because they got spots to fill

Ex. Of entry level positions in San Antonio that was posted 2 weeks ago. Emphasis on Sec+ a must! There’s way to get sponsored to go directly overseas as well but that comes by networking & having direct contacts that can get you n touch with the recruiters. This route is quicker

Lmao @ her hashtag #coronavirushiring get you a recession proof job in a recession proof industry. Defense spending grew during five of the six last recessions

US Defense Spending since 1974. Areas highlighted in gray are recessions. Unsure of what to do with this information? Maybe get a job in the sector or buy some defense stocks idk go ask a financial advisor

Network on LinkedIn Establish connections with these recruiters that are hiring for positions that will sponsor you for a clearance, especially the Sr ones, send them your resume. Even if the position gets filled they’ll keep you in mind for when more open up (&they always do)
