    Why would you even need to ask this? Obviously if you have over 20 articles, it may make more sense to just link to your article listing URL or perhaps list the most recent 5 and then link to the listing URL.

    Regards, Nish

        I used to work for someone (I can't tell you who) where my security clearance level needed a security clearance on almost the same level to even know what level it was. Needless to say, back then, if I wrote a cheque, never mind any code, it was classified! Today I work for the medical profession and the security is almost as tight but there is only one level of security, the "don't tell anyone anything" level!

                Yes, and if they don't then get a job elsewhere. Coding is done by people who want a paycheck and by people who love coding. Sometimes both. Writing an article says that you care about coding, you're proud of what you do, and you're confident in your skills and open to review, criticism and looking to constantly improve. It says you're good and you want to get even better. Show off your articles in you resume and make sure your potentially employer is someone who also cares about software development.

                          You think that is silly... Within the first six months on the job I wrote report on something and it was classified. I wanted to update it a little later but was not cleared to read it - even though I wrote it! I had to wait for my positive vetting process to complete, which increased my clearance enough for me to read (and update) the report I wrote.

                              For the applications I am working on it mostly is: some contains the cryptographic parts (not the entire key, but part of it), and other "critical internal work flow / document flow" info. If that goes out then.. the guy whoe sent it out will have some big trouble. It's a kind of insider knowledge.

                              Again, that goes for most shops. Imagine your entire medical history on the street - with some famous ambassadors on that list - would amount to big trouble too. The reason I'm hammering on it is because a bank is not more special than, say, a pension fund, a hospital or a nuclear plant. The only thing that makes it "special" is the attitude that says "wee bee special".

                                        Yes but do the interviewers really care about that?

                                        At least one does. I had an interview last fall where the interviewer made a point of mentioning he read my two articles.

                                          All I will say is that my employee number ended in "...0007". Actually this is true, is was a running joke. I was "Triple-oh-seven".

                                          - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

                                          Ok, now I have understood. Because I am the new "M", man kind, and I just renewed your license to kill. If you want to find me I sleep inside a nice bunker of the bank, its nearly impossible to enter :laugh: :laugh:
