There’s some debate as to whether a job seeker should provide clearance details on their resume. As a rule, the government suggests that you NOT make your clearance details known in a public forum. ClearanceJobs.com is not a public forum.

Our service has restricted access – only authorized government contractors and legitimate search firms are allowed access to your resume. We manually pre-screen each employer requesting access. All employers gaining access to ClearanceJobs.com must be U.S.-based, and all recruiters using our system must be U.S. citizens. Additionally, we do not allow employer access to ClearanceJobs.com from outside the continental United States. Employers must be manually pre-screened. Unlike all other job boards, it is not possible to obtain resume database access on ClearanceJobs.com with only a credit card. Don’t forget – other large job boards allow anyone, from any country, to access your resume with a credit card.

ClearanceJobs.com is not a public forum, but rather a secure, closed access system, so you can provide clearance details should you choose to do so.
