Try Northrop Grumman, in my department we have 20 retirees of the 39 employees
Guess: I have tried so hard to get on-board with Northrop-Grumman, but I just can’t seem to make any headway with them at all. It seems as though they aren’t interested in ANY technical people unless they have either a college degree or a security clearance or both!!! It seems as though NONE of my 30-years of design and development work experience counts to NG and I have been involved in countless numbers of engineering laboratories sometimes designing “bleeding edge” technology. I would think my background would HAVE to count for something!!!
I am a Vietnam-Era Veteran who has 30-years of experience working as a “Senior Electronics Mechanical Packaging & PCB Designer” primarily assisting teams of engineers in “converting / translating” their electronic schematics into a “physical reality” or an “actual piece of equipment” which you can actually hold in your hands!!!
I have been unemployed for about 2-1/2 years and I just found out this evening (6/4/13) that I am going to lose my home in about 2-weeks unless I can show my mortgage lender that I have an INCOME!!! While performing my design work, I have also assisted defense firms and other companies in the design and development of projects that were for “covert intelligence-gathering, surveillance and/or tracking operations” equipment sponsored by U.S. Government agencies, such as the CIA, DoD, FBI, NASA, NRO, NSA and The Department of Homeland Security. And…..NO!!…..I do NOT have a security clearance, but I did have one (SECRET) when I was on active military duty.
I live in Maryland, not too far from Washington, DC and the Northern Virginia Technology Region. In fact, for me to get to WDC, I need to drive down I-270, which is called the “I-270 Technology Corridor”. Is there anyone or any company which you can get me in touch with to get a job before my home literally goes into foreclosure? I NEED HELP before I become “another homeless Vietnam-Era Veteran”!!!

THANK YOU!! and I sincerely hope to hear from you shortly!!

Do you have any jobs in San Antonio, Texas?
Where is your company based? Or locations?
Where are you located? I retired, with disabilities, in 1991 with 13 years as an MP, 95B4H (Physical Security Inspector), and as of late all I seem too land are low paying contract security jobs. Granted, I am now 60 but I have a lot to offer.
I retired in 1991, PDRL, after 13 years as an MP. I achieved the rank of SFC-E7 with a Physical Security Inspector designation. Since than time I have worked for both contract and proprietary security companies. I recently retired from the TSA, after I bought back my time with the military. Now I’m working part time on the weekends doing a contract security job again, at $9.00 an hour. I know that even at 60 I have more too offer than this. What do you have in the NY Capital District area?
