Contractor Background Investigator Morale at Low Point

Originally published at: Contractor Background Investigator Morale at Low Point | ClearanceJobs Blog

There is a long-running discussion thread on ClearanceJobsBlog.com that current, past and future contractor background investigators are using to discuss the current state of affairs for their career field. Most investigators are what are called 1099ers, meaning they are independents performing work for the company who is under contract to the Office of Personnel Management…

Good summary… are they still under contract to OPM? Much of this work has moved to DoD but I suppose sometimes it takes a while for contracts to catch up.

DHS has been ignored. Massive hiring, little to no vetting, at least by 1099’s.
