Thanks for the reply. One of DS2's frustrations is that he can't get experience unless he gets hired. No hiring, no experience. Also he is seeing positions requiring 10 years experience at minimum wage with a TS clearance (we're in the DC/Baltimore area). Think 3 letter agencies.
DS1 got DS2 the interview where he said he was moving out of state. DS1 regrets arranging the interview. DS2 is open to entry level positions but he can't seem to find them.
I also am in DC area so I understand his frustration. I'd say the easiest first step is to stay away from the clearances at first. I say that only because the hill is a lot higher to get entry, so no need to make things harder right off the bat. Social Security administration is up your way. Might be too much of a drive, but there is 5-6 agencies in the Rockville\Gaithersburg.
