Contractor hired to work at a government facility, early May 2023. They currently have a Secret clearance from previous/current job and are awaiting TS adjudication before they can begin work in new position.
MAY2023: T5 request sent by FSO
JUN2023: Adv. NAC completed
(Not Sure when interview took place)
APR2024: T5 Completed by OPM
Adjudication is still in progress with DOD CAS.
The SSO and his FSO have called to see if DoD CAS/DSCA can offer insight as to what is taking so long. The most detailed response they got was that they are not waiting on any information.
I wish they would have let me go through it all. Iām just waiting now for more positions to open up again to reapply. But itās given me good reason to start my masters as I was already wanting to get it done, but was just planning on it once I started.
Some people have reported being contacted by a recruiter for another position. But mostly the result seems to be what @Volk saidā¦ feel free to apply again.
DIA has a different approach (or at least they have in the past) where they make CJOās to people and after they clear they go into a hiring poolā¦ only at that time do their resumes get routed to hiring managers with openings. In some case, people languish in that pool for months.
So this is a weird question, but, investigations expire after two years pass right? What happens if I donāt get a decision in the next checks calendar 10 months? Mine has been closed since last July and in adjudication for over a year.
I am growing more optimistic about the Meade agency since more job postings have been appearing lately. I just hope I hear something soon ā itās been a few months of radio silence now and Iām getting stir crazy with my current living situation.
I recently found out the position I applied for is no longer available. I guess a silver lining is that I am being placed on the Cleared Candidate List for future openings. I assume this means I was granted a clearance? Does anyone know if I can use this clearance to apply for contractor positions or other agencies?
Nothing in particular ā just kinda impatiently waiting to hear something myself. I was supposed to have a call this morning w/ my hiring ambassador but he didnāt pick up, though he usually doesnāt when I call and ends up calling me back. I donāt have any additional information until I call with him on if my position is still in good standing or not.
Hey terps! It sounds like a positive development in a way maybe? Surely you would have a clearance at this point? Hopefully someone smarter than me gives you some advice! New week for all of us, hopefully some good news our way, we shall see what it brings!
Random, yes, itās better than being completely denied, so Iāll take it at this point. Now I just need to confirm the clearance before I start applying!
