If you have multiple felonies, you will probably not get a security clearance. Plus you have to have the right skill sets. If you majored in women, black, gay, glbt studies you probably won’t make it past the circular file.

That’s the way it used to be but not anymore. I was at a military service parade a few years ago sitting with a few retired guys that were high ranking within the intelligence community, and one of them said, “I bet we couldn’t get the security clearances anymore.”
I had an investigator asked me, “What is your views on gay and lesbians having access to the military?” When I said it was none of anyone’s business, she replied is was a formal question the agency required to be answered.
