    It's probably the only major city in the Southeast, so that could be a factor. Drive an hour north from Atlanta, and you'll see confederate flags in this place. I'm not defending A…

    Do you require clearances to apply? Do you allow non-citizens to apply? And do you plan sponsor visas in the near future? I couldn't find info on this from the description.
