<p>Hey everyone, I'm currently 3 semesters from earning my A.A in International Relations, then moving onto a B.A in International Relations. </p>
<p>I've read a lot about government jobs, such as the UN, Fed Gov, State Gov, etc. I also noticed a lot of these required a Security Clearance. I started to get worried because I have somewhat of a criminal background during my juvenile years.
I was accused of F-2 Aggravated Battery - Went to trial and it was acquitted. I then was charged with 2 F-2 and 2 M-1 for accessing somebodies facebook. Stupid, I know. They Nolle Prosequi one F-2 and 1 M-1. The other F-2 and M-1 I plead No Contest and did probation for 1 year from age 18 to 19. I am about to turn 21. Reason why it was so late was because the sheriff waited to question me. Almost 6 months after. </p>
<p>During this whole time I was; never arrested, never spent a minute in jail, nothing.</p>
<p>I only have a few traffic tickets, good credit, have only smoked marijuana a few times , never addicted, or anything. It's been almost a year and I plan on not smoking ever again. </p>
<p>Based on this, if you have any background in security clearances, what are my chances? I want to know now so I can find other internships, jobs, basically enough experience for a Master's then apply again for a federal job.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance! </p>
