Security Clearance...
Now that I have the job on Parliament Hill, I need to get security clearance to work there (so they know I'm not a terrorist, and won't plant a bomb in the Prime Minister's Office). I'm not sure exactly what it all involves, but I'm sure it won't be nearly as in-depth as the security clearance that a friend went through before working for the Department of Foreign Affairs.
However, I did have to provide the government with a list of all my employers for the past 5 years, all the educational institutes I attended over the past 5 years, and all of the addresses where I've lived over the past 5 years (including France).
I'm not worried, just curious as to how much they'll dig around, and if they'll call any of my previous employers.
