Hello,

Some questions:

[1] If you were looking for a job as a software engineer working with signal processing algorithms (audio or video), would you rather work on the east coast or the west coast when it comes to work environment? Why?

I heard that the work environment is more laid-back on the west coast.

[2] A lot of the signal processing jobs on the east coast require that the applicant has a security clearance. As far as I understand you have to be a U.S. citizen to obtain a security clearance. So I guess I - as a non U.S. citizen - am excluded from applying to those type of jobs?

[3] Do you know or have you heard about what it is like working for these DoD contractors as a software engineer?

[4] I haven't really been able to find any jobs in the Washington DC Metro area which are within my "circle of interest" (audio or video applications/algorithms, signal processing) without there being some sort of security clearance requirement. Aren't there any companies in the Washington DC Metro area (or bordering states) which deals with audio/video apps, signal processing etc. ?

I mean: companies which produce apps involving audio/video algorithms for the general public (for example: a company which produces 3D PC games).

Happy New Year....and thanks!
