Polygraph Problems for Clearance Holders and Tips for Your Clearance Interview

If the thought of a polygraph gives you sweaty palms you're not alone. The polygraph is known to be bunk science, but that hasn't stopped it as being a part of the Intelligence Community's employment process. The reason isn't the science - it's because the test is successful in getting individuals to reveal previously undisclosed information. Lindy Kyzer and Jill Hamilton with ClearanceJobs discuss recent news articles about the security clearance polygraph process. In the second half of the program, Sean Bigley and Lindy discuss what the security clearance process is really designed for, and why your investigator is there to check boxes, and not make a value judgment on you.
