I have a top secret security clearance now. If I pass the Foreign Service Officer Test and oral assessment, would I be eligible for a job immediately?
If your TS clearance was granted by the Department of State, then you won’t need a new one. However, if it’s from another agency, we’ll need to verify the duration and level of clearance to determine if we need to update the background investigation and issue our own clearance. In either case, your entire file will be reviewed to determine your suitability for appointment to the Foreign Service before you are offered a job. Even if your current Top Secret security clearance is still valid, you will need to submit a SF-86 for the purpose of providing current data for the Final Review Panel’s suitability review.
