Maryland Meetup + NSA Interview (^)>
Hey guys, so I got invited to give a research presentation at the JMM (the world's largest mathematics meeting )
That means, I'm going to be in Baltimore, Maryland from Jan. 15-18th give or take a few days. I'd be down to hang out with anyone that lives relatively close by; ffr meetups are so fun I'd also appreciate any tips on things I should do in Baltimore, I'm really a noob when it comes to traveling :P Also, I don't know if this is thread worthy since I technically don't have the job yet, but I was asked to come in for an interview at the NSA (National Security Agency) for a summer position as a mathematician So if things work out nicely, I'll be coming back to Maryland for a lot longer haha. |

Inner Harbor is one of the main things in Baltimore but since it'll be cold it might suck. You're close to Washington DC as well. There's a new mummy museum that opened up in Baltimore. We live 20 mins from Baltimore so could meetup with us too.

Don't worry, the NSA is just going to make me solve math problems: Suppose you have x security cameras elephant trainers and y citizens to spy on pink elephants. The security cameras elephant trainers must have an eye on the citizens to spy on pink elephants at all times. Create a model and devise and algorithm that best... Ikr?! O_O Quote:

Darn, I'll be leaving Maryland the week before you arrive. However, if you get the job I may also be in Maryland this summer (semi-close to Ft Meade). It depends on how my summer internship plans work out.

Thanks! ('n)> And yeah, the JMM is as legit as it gets so I'm super stoked A land whose fleece was white as snow. Thank you! I'm a double major in math and computer science, although I am still quite clueless on what I want to do later in life... |

Re: Maryland Meetup + NSA Interview (^)>
Thanks! Yeah, I'm hoping the interview goes well, I'm kinda nervous! >.< Although first, I have to jump through a million hoops in order to get the proper security clearances, heheh.

Re: Maryland Meetup + NSA Interview (^)>
If you don't have any blemishes on your credit, or if you haven't established credit, you'll recieve an interim security clearance. The real clearance (I'm assuming TS) will come after you start working. If they tell you that they're actively persuing a clearance, that's a good indication that you're being selected. Clearances are not cheap lmao.
mfw reactiving my clearance will cost my employer thousands |
