    Question about IT position in gov't agencies. I noticed when I was looking for possible job, required ang security clearance if you need to handle government data. True po ba? How hard it is to get a security clearance?

    Yup that’s true. You have to be a citizen first to get security clearance.

    Mahigpit nga talaga kapag sa gov't agencies in general lalo sa mga 1st world countries. I can compare dito sa SG, 2 weeks before na-grant access ko sa work and all. Nag bbackground check sila lalo sa foreigners.

    Sa AUS ba pwede non-PR or non-citizen sa govt? Thanks!

    Meron naman akong nakikita na open to all... Pero mas madalas yung citizen ang hanap lalo't business or backend systems ang hahawakan. Need talaga ng baseline clearance dyan.

    please also be advised na yung security clearance na need sa government, may bayad po yun, as per below google search lang:

    yung mga companies na kinukuha ako, expected nila meron na ako nyan, pag sinabi ko na sila ba magbabayad, di na bumabalik :P

    Citizen ka na ba? Kung hindi pa, sana sinabi mo umpisa pa lang haha, kasi yang clearance na yang pang citizen lang. Meron kasing mga recruiters minsan hindi aware sa full details nyan. Meron rin naman na hindi nilalagay na for citizen applicants only.

    Dami ko na rin inapplyan (walang indication ng clearance requirement) or nag reach out sakin, tas pag hihingan ako ng clearance sinasabi ko, hindi ako eligible. Sayang lang hahaha ganda pa naman ng potential based sa job description. :D

    uhmm... nope, di pa po citizen, meron kasi nag-hire na kahit PR pa lang, basta meron NV1 clearance "daw" e pwede na, just trying to point out na yung employers sometimes ayaw bayaran yung clearance na needed para makapasok sa company nila, which i believe they should shoulder :)

    yup tama si @lack14, i'm looking out as well for the 2k per day role din sa government, which is not too bad na din :) also working flexible and happy where i am ;)

    please also be advised na yung security clearance na need sa government, may bayad po yun, as per below google search lang:

    yung mga companies na kinukuha ako, expected nila meron na ako nyan, pag sinabi ko na sila ba magbabayad, di na bumabalik :P

    just my 2 cents :)

    all the best!

    Citizen ka na ba? Kung hindi pa, sana sinabi mo umpisa pa lang haha, kasi yang clearance na yang pang citizen lang. Meron kasing mga recruiters minsan hindi aware sa full details nyan. Meron rin naman na hindi nilalagay na for citizen applicants only.

    Dami ko na rin inapplyan (walang indication ng clearance requirement) or nag reach out sakin, tas pag hihingan ako ng clearance sinasabi ko, hindi ako eligible. Sayang lang hahaha ganda pa naman ng potential based sa job description. :D

    uhmm... nope, di pa po citizen, meron kasi nag-hire na kahit PR pa lang, basta meron NV1 clearance "daw" e pwede na, just trying to point out na yung employers sometimes ayaw bayaran yung clearance na needed para makapasok sa company nila, which i believe they should shoulder :)

    yup tama si @lack14, i'm looking out as well for the 2k per day role din sa government, which is not too bad na din :) also working flexible and happy where i am ;)

    all the best po!

    Unfortunately nv1 clearance is only for citizens. Kaso madaming recruiters na tamad basta lang maka interview schedule if pasok sa keywords yung CV skills. A few may give exception if you really stand out but very rare. I used to hire before and I had to spell out to HR what to look for. Independent recruiters on the other hand know their job and even look beyond skills or experience, and they sell you to the company. So worth introducing yourselves to them and have those coffees.

    Dami dami nga ngayong govt positions available for ICT, mahina na nga ang 800pd. Panalo! Pero yun nga, pang citizens lang karamihan lol

    @baiken lapit ka na rin maging citizen di ba? Nalalapit na "graduation". :D

    Once you have enough experience and network, try to study more on cloud, cyber security, data science, architecture. These roles are pandemic proof and can demand good salary, with contracting jobs too.
