It won't be a problem as long as you are upfront about it. dakini_bones July 16 2010, 09:03:44 UTC

They don't want you to be blackmailable. If youre opne about it, they don't care.

This. But honestly, it really depends on your position and the type of clearance you need.

I seriously doubt it would be a problem.

Here you don't need a security clearance to work in goverment, just a criminal convictions check. So, provided you haven't broken the law, no problems. If you need a security clearance it would be unlikely to be an issue, as far as I know.

I agree.

While you dont always have to volunteer the information - dont get on that bus with the half-truths.

At least for now - it is a legal and profitable career that many people choose.

If you go after a job that does a clearance check - it may depend on many factors. In some cases I've found that many of the more alternative activities, as long as they are not something that can be used"against" a person because they are hidden is a lot less of an issue.

FYI - you might be surprised at how many folks you may work along side that actually has done time in front or behind the cameras, the poles or the stage.
