I got hired in july for a helpdesk working as a government contractor and was suppose to work two weeks after my hire date but i keep having issues with my security clearance because of soo many hidden factors that i have no idea i needed to have unless they tell you, AFTER you submit it.. And a week ago i got hired as an IT Consultant and will for sure start working on the 25th of august..
Anyone else have a similar experience?
I guess the security clearance issues were an blessing in disguise : )

Are you getting paid?
You should contact your manager and see if there's anything you can do to get familiarized with their environment, political structure, products they use, etc.Good luck to all! -

welcome to the world of security clearances, but usually they can at least give you a "interm" until your clearance comes though, unless you will be working in a SCIF.
