Curious about a scenario where a contractor has been supporting a civilian agency at the Public Trust level for a while now. No SF-86 was ever completed, and they are just now being asked to do fingerprinting. Separately, this person also holds a Secret clearance through a different company supporting a DoD agency. This clearance was completed a while back. But in terms of both jobs No overlap in mission, scope, or agencies.
A few questions:
Would the fingerprinting and whatever background process follows surface the other position?
Should I just quit one of them? I honestly didn’t know this was an issue before. I do like the public trust job better.
Not the fingerprinting process. If there isn’t anything to hide they should just tell the employers about each other. Its not illegal or against policy to have a a second job, they just need to approve it
One of the jobs doesn’t want me to have any other job. I don’t think it has to do with policy they just want me to their self. I think the second one I can tell them. But I don’t want to tell them and they reach out to the other.
There is no predicting what can happen. It’s always a crap shoot but “wanting you to their self” does not seem like a place that values their employees privacy or freedom.
100% this. I would not want to work at a place that treats me like that. If you have a clearance, that should be all the leverage you need to tell them to back off. Most companies can’t afford to lose cleared personnel.
