I heard that the US governement is looking to hire hackers for vulnerability testing.
I'm curious and cannot find any info. on this.  Does anyone know what their minimum requirement is, with respect to experience?

Just call the FBI, give them your hacking back ground and they will have some one contact you shortly.

oh ya, I'm sure the FBI would love to pay someone with hacking experience, a visit. Cool
Honestly I have no experience vulnerability testing systems, I actually heard that the US gov. would train.....don't know if it is true, just thought someone else might know something about it.
