GovClose Certification Overview: https://www.govclose.com/govclose-certification-programWhy are college-age kids choosing government contracting as a career path and succeeding at it? There is a big debate going on in this country about the price of a college education vs. what you actually get for it. Choosing a career can be difficult for young people, never mind paying off a huge amount of debt for an education that may not actually help you get a job! In this video, I interview a college sophomore who went through the GovClose certification program, learned government contracting, and was immediately offered a paid internship with an aerospace defense company.Next I interview Jack, a young man in his early 20s, no bachelor's degree, but went through the GovClose certification program and now has multiple high-paying clients. Government contracting is not for everybody. It's hard. Some would say it's boring (not me, of course). But there is enormous amounts of funding that the federal government spends in almost all industries each year. There are very few people that actually understand how the government buys. Because of this, salaries and consulting fees tend to be very high, and there's not a lot of competition because so few people even know about government contracting as a profession, and even less actually understand the process. I also want to make a disclaimer. I am not advising people to skip college. But, I do want to make people aware that there is an alternative. Also in Lindsey's case, you'll see combining college with government contracting can actually be a really great option as well. I hope this video helps. And if you liked it, and/or if you would like to see a program dedicated to helping college-age kids get into government contracting, let me know in the comments.
