SC Clearance - 12 Months and still in progress

[Lance]

Sharing SC clearance sponsors on a public forum isn't the smartest idea.

Who the sponsors are is not secret. There isn't a published list but there are many obvious ones, like most service providers to any defence organisation.

If it's DXC then saying so isn't causing any issues. Same with GCHQ/BT etc. (note I've never been sponsored by any of those organisations so I'm just guessing)

If of course it's a little company, doing secret squirrel stuff for the Ministry of Special Affairs (Dirty Tricks dept.) then you're probably right.

There are companies who claim to be sponsors who aren't though. That's why I asked the question as 12 months seems an awful long time and I would expect a sponsor to have escalated, or sacked the OP. So my guess is that it's a company who is supplying services to the actual sponsor. But that's speculation.

It's not secret. It's still not very smart.

My clearance took a month about 6 months ago. Dead quick....

And I shag sheep!

Easy to do a background check when all you do is sit on the sofa watching Jeremy Kyle and turn up at the job center every week at the same time.
