      Only if your hair is colored red or blue,

        I remember when aerospace workers were hard drinking, hard smoking, hard cursing, patriotic, politically incorrect and mentally tough with great pride.

        We weren’t woke snowflakes and we got things done right. Do you think that they miss us yet??

      Northrup is probably looking to hire an H1-B visa holder.

      When the gov started giving away student loans a myriad of strip mall colleges popped up to absorb the money.

      It didn’t matter that jobs they were educating for didn’t exist.

      All ya’all still need to pay your loans back

    I’ve got friends and fellow serviceman that work Northrop Grumman, and it definitely pays excellent pay/benefits. However, their high priority is involving new hires that already possess a current Security Clearance. Otherwise, you’ll probably enjoy far better luck pursuing a Lotto win.

      How does someone get a security clearance ?

      • America's Most Inspected & Rejected says

        March 5, 2022 at 8:09 am

        See Laughing”s answer above.

        Rose, it costs a lot of money for a company to push a new hire through the security clearance process, and that amount goes up based on how far back the investigation digs. So someone who has already had a security clearance only has to be investigated back to that point, where someone who has never had one needs a full investigation. So to get your first security clearance it helps to be young, and you have to have a company that wants you bad enough that they will take on the expense.

        So as long as Northrop can find enough people that had their clearance active last year when they were in the military, or last week when they were working at Lockheed, or whatever, those people will certainly get hired first. If they run out of those people then your “fresh out of school” becomes an advantage because it implies that you are young. My security clearance was active until I was…hmmm…26, so to reactivate it would involve an investigation covering more than thirty years. In other words, they would rather hire you than me, so you’ve got that going for you.

        Good luck :)

          Good answer and a lot more helpful than mine.

          Tim seems to make sense..

          I hear he was VP of Skunk Works

          • Tim Scott says

            March 5, 2022 at 10:46 pm

            Nope. As stated my security clearance expired when I was 26. Had I risen to VP of Skunkworks by 26 I’d probably be…I dunno…somewhere else now.

        Don’t use alcohol or marijuana at Plant 42. Just ask Marv Crist. He was one of 18 firefighters put on leave then re-hired, when Rex’s lap dog was head of the local I 25 International Assn. of Firefighter’s at Plant 42. He lost his base clearance and got fired. Documented facts show that Crist was aware of firefighters’ regular drug and alcohol use in the base’s firehouse.

        But you can become Vice Mayor with that resume.
