Found this craigslist add in St. Louis, MO

If anyone wants to get some inside info. This looks like a good job to apply for. Too bad I don't have the security clearance needed. It was posted under office jobs. I don't know if it's serious. The job is in New Mexico.

Q clearance
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Q clearance is a United States Department of Energy (DOE) security clearance equivalent to a United States Department of Defense Top Secret (TS) clearance and Critical Nuclear Weapon Design Information (CNWDI).[1] DOE clearances apply for access specifically relating to atomic or nuclear related materials ("Restricted Data" under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954). The clearance is issued to non-military personnel only. In 1946 U.S. Army Counter Intelligence Corps Major Bud Uanna, in his capacity as the first Chief of the Central Personnel Clearance Office at the newly formed Atomic Energy Commission named and established the criteria for the Q Clearance.

As of 1993, Q clearances required a single-scope background investigation of the previous ten years of the applicant's life by both the Office of Personnel Management and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and as of 1998 cost $3,225.[2]

L clearance
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An L clearance is a security clearance used by the United States Department of Energy (DOE) and Nuclear Regulatory Commission for civilian access relating to nuclear materials and information under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954. It is equivalent to a United States Department of Defense (DOD) Secret clearance.[citation needed]

The DOE L clearance provides less access than the agency's Q clearance. L-cleared persons are allowed unescorted access to "limited" and "protected" areas, as well as access to Confidential Restricted Data, Confidential and Secret Formerly Restricted Data, Confidential and Secret National Security Information, and Category III special nuclear material.[1]

As of 1989, the NRC required the Q clearance for employees in the most important and sensitive positions, while most employees in positions deemed "noncritical-sensitive" held L clearances.[2]

Ah m buddy must have one of those. He's in the navy, officer side. Intel I think. He doesn't really say. But I do remember that the FBI kept calling me and all of his friends to interview us about our friend. Something about maintaining his security level. Man those interviews sucked. 45 min each. And you simply don't tell the FBI to call back later because you are about to step into a movie theatre.

Thank you by the way for posting the info n what a Q clearance is.

Guessing they are needing a Secretary at the Calloway Nuke plant near St.Louis,MO.

National Nuclear Security Administration Service Center, Albuquerque

Sandia National Laboratories and another National Lab are both here as well. I am in Albuquerque and between those and Kirtland AFB, here in the city we are surrounded. Not to mention Los Alamos and Dulce! Joy to the world. Let me tell you guys, when driving up to a stoplight I look over at a Homeland Security vehicle next to me...it takes every fiber of my soul to not show em the state bird!!

I wouldn't believe anything posted on craigslist, especially jobs. I swear every time I applied for a job through craigslist, I received nothing but junk mail and these home based opportunities.

There are real jobs on there. Only like 1/100 seems ligit but they are indeed there. Non-profit org jobs usually are real, since they have strange rules concerning how they can advertise openings (at least in my state). I should warn you, That is how my family started out feud with 'The Jim Bakker Show' and mourningside....It may be ligit, but what a group of whack jobs

ya, you can. it's simple. you open your mouth and generate sound waves with your vocal cords that they can understand.

for example: "hi, can you call back in 2 hrs, i'll be happy to complete your interview then. thanks."

very, very simple. i hope this helps.

I wonder if that would prompt them to threaten your friends position. Just seems like something they would do.

I have to agree with manhater---Sorry, but the gov'ment does not advertise on CL--usajobs.gov... is where any govt jobs can be had.

Not to mention the add----Removed.

I'm gonna go ahead and make a wild guess here, and say Nope, I don't think this was serious.
