    I love it when you have veterans. Statistically speaking they make up the larger portion of defense contractors. Not that that's how that should be, but transitioning out the military is a scary thing so your videos provide some much-needed reassurance. Thank you for doing what you do!

      @symonebeez  Před měsícem +2

      Different number the same certifications. 8140 hasn't even been implemented yet. You won't find a single job posting with 8140 on it.

    • @Youonlyloseyourself
      @Youonlyloseyourself Před měsícem

      It’s still 8570
      DFARS hasn’t been updated yet so they’re still going by that for contracting. If you go straight to the Feds GS/GG roles that’s already implemented.

    • @littlemarduk22
      @littlemarduk22 Před měsícem

      @symonebeez actually a few overseas you will find..and that's only because most companies don't even know 8140 was implemented in 2023 which isn't really new. I would blame the government for not enforcing and yes you are right it's the same. With that said where can I sign up for govtech?
