Lan,
        The first requirement is a job that requires a clearance. Never mind
that is might sound like a chicken and egg thing... but your new
employer will sponsor the process. It's expensive and time consuming if
you are getting a new one. I think if your last active clearance was in
1968, you are starting over.
        When an employer says it's a plus if you have one, they are really
saying is that it's a plus if you have one at your current employer or
have one that has been inactive for only a few years. They are
relatively easy to reactivate and/or renew. You don't get to keep your
clearance active if you don't need it.
