The Washington DC/ Northern Virginia area, while not exactly booming

Immediates clearances are only needed if you work for DoD or an
intelligence agency. If you get hired by someone who's clients are
mainly civilian agencies, you don't need a clearance. Actually the first
time I got hired in this area was for a DoD client, and I didn't have a
clearance either.
that counts. My resume tip: demonstrate increasing skills and
responsibility -- that shows you are motivated and can educate yourself.

If a clearance is required before you start, you're out of luck. To
apply for a clearance in the first place, if you didn't already have a
clearance from being in the military or something, your employer has to
fill out a form stating the need for you to have a clearance, and give a

Good luck. Unlike 2+ years ago, when the head-hunters were call us at
work, the tech industry has taken a big hit. I just recently got
another job after 8 months of unemployment. If you're in the States,
you'll better your chances if you are willing to relocate to anywhere

Yeah, I hear that.
