It&#39;s certainly very important to ensure your keep your clearance updated. 1SG Larry Everly Wed, 23 Jul 2014 14:46:08 -0400 2014-07-23T14:46:08-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/do-you-make-it-a-priority-to-keep-your-security-clearance-up-to-date?n=184707&urlhash=184707 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>1SG Everly. The security clearance may be helpful in positions where the employer wishes to start immediately and/or save some money on the clearance process. In the end, the best personal fit for the job at hand is far more important.

You will have to have a requirement for it -- this boils down to having a job or MOS (if staying in the RC) that requires it. COL Randall C.
