We are an Equal Opportunity Employer, and we value diversity as a principal component of our success. We have never, nor will we, discriminate based upon race, religion, sex, sexual alignment, age, disability, national origin, background, or education. Whew. It’s really very simple: if you have what it takes to work with us, and we have an opening, we want you.

Widgetdyne has an extensive and rigorous process for recruiting new talent. In the interest of fairness, we would like to make you aware of some aspects of the procedure:

• If contacted by us regarding employment, there is no guarantee that an offer of employment will be tendered.
• The interview and screening process can sometimes be lengthy (6-8 months, plus additional time if Security Classifications are a component of the process.)
• If contacted by us, you may expect to participate in a minimum of 5 interviews. The first interview is always by phone. Subsequent interviews may require you to travel to our campus, or (if more convenient), we will travel to you.
• If we request you to visit us at our campus, Widgetdyne will pay all expenses with regard to your travel, lodging, meals, entertainment, and communication with your Family while with us. We encourage your spouses to accompany you if possible, and you are welcome to bring your children along if you desire.
• We conduct full background checks on all candidates, and encourage an honest and full disclosure during the evaluation process. Most of us went to college; we know what happens there, and won’t flay you for it.
• If the position requires a Security clearance, and we tender an offer of employment, we will absorb the cost of the necessary investigations.
• All Widgetdyne associates are subject to a 1-Year probationary period, and we reserve the right to terminate employment without cause during this period. We have never availed ourselves of this right, as our hiring processes are extremely stout.
• If an offer to you has been made requiring a Security Clearance, and said Security Clearance is estimated to take more than six (6) months to accomplish, we will offer your employment in a similar, but non-Secured role until Clearance has been granted. Compensation will be equivalent to the agreed-upon amount until the results of the investigation have been communicated to us.
• If an offer to you has been made requiring a Security Clearance, and you fail to gain said Security Clearance for any reason beyond our immediate control, we will make every attempt to position you in a similar, non-Secured role should you so desire.
• We do not – under any circumstances – treat the lack of Formal Education as an element in our hiring process. For any given opening, we will entertain all applicants, and provide multiple opportunities for you to demonstrate your own unique skills, regardless of degree or diploma.

As stated above, we have no current openings. However, we foresee the need for the following positions through the course of 2006:
