The FBI warns that talent recruitment programs pose a serious risk to U.S. businesses, universities, and laboratories. What might appear as legitimate opportunities often serve as conduits for undisclosed transfers of intellectual property, proprietary technology, and sensitive research. All benefiting China, not U.S. innovation ecosystems. Sean Bigley and Lindy Kyzer highlight the issue, sometimes advertised as OCONUS job opportunities, on this episode of the Security Clearance Careers Podcast.While there may be instances of genuine collaboration, the norm is far more troubling: these programs tend to facilitate one-way, undocumented sharing that carries significant risks. Not only do U.S. institutions lose competitive or scientific advantages, but the individuals (i.e. students, researchers, or employees) who participate might unwittingly compromise their careers, funding eligibility, and professional credibility. Moreover, if proprietary information is stolen or research funding is misused, institutions may suffer irreversible reputational and financial harm, even if prosecution eventually follows.Veterans can be a target for these sometimes-tempting OCONUS job listings – utilizing their clearance for a decent wage overseas. But clearance holders should note that failure to disclose foreign affiliations, contracts or contracts can breach institutional policies, federal conflict-of-interest rules, national security laws, and your commitment to self-reporting. Transparency is thus essential, both to protect institutions and to safeguard the careers of the individuals involved. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

If you're scaling a team, hiring support, or simply trying to bring more clarity and consistency into your business, you won't want to miss this episode of the Life and Listings podcast. In Episode 84, Jennifer Staats dives deep into the often-overlooked areas of onboarding and offboarding—breaking down exactly why they matter, what steps you need to take, and how to create efficient systems that truly support growth. Whether you're bringing on agents, admins, or contractors, this episode is packed with actionable tips, templates, and examples to help you build workflows that actually work. Tune in and grab the free playbook to start optimizing your onboarding process today!   “One of the key elements that every onboarding should include is role clarity, who's doing what? What's the expectations there? Whether it's your team or and or your agent, or the person being on boarded, who's doing what? What tools and systems does this person need access to be successful? So think through that ahead of time. Think about the things they need to be successful to bring them into your team.”   Key Highlights: Onboarding and offboarding are essential workflows that go beyond paperwork—they shape the new hire's experience and prevent chaos, confusion, and broken promises. Every onboarding plan should include role clarity, tools and systems access, cultural and brand integration, and clear checklists to ensure consistency and alignment across your team. All documentation should be role-based rather than name-based, so your systems remain scalable and adaptable as team members come and go. Onboarding and offboarding plans must be customized for different types of team members, such as agents, contractors, and employees, since each role has unique needs and requirements. Using templates and checklists with linked resources like emails, videos, and brand materials can significantly reduce time spent and minimize mistakes in the onboarding process. Your onboarding and offboarding systems should be treated as living documents that evolve over time with team feedback, growing needs, and changing tools—ideally with someone owning the process.     Download the Playbook: https://app.datalabz.re/forms/e23412ac-bb1a-4302-ad81-3e3d4fd744e9   Connect with Jennifer Staats: Website: staatssolutions.com Staats Solution Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/staatssolutions/ Jennifer Staats Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jennifertherealtor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/staatssolutions/

What happens when you stop building your real estate business the way everyone tells you to and start building it around who you really are? On this episode, JD Reese shares how he rebuilt from that exact moment and what came next. He takes us inside Genuine Real Estate Group, one of the most consistent teams in Southern Utah, where 60 listings stay active and under contract, and agent turnover is nearly zero. He breaks down how they keep that kind of performance steady without burning out. From pricing strategy and emotional sellers to tracking accountability and team culture, JD gets into the decisions that drive results. “You've got to be the best house and the best offering in the neighborhood,” he says. But that's just the beginning. JD also unpacks how his team uses tools like Sisu's new product “Battr”, to track every step of the lead journey, flag breakdowns, and stay focused on what actually moves the needle. “It's not about more leads. It's about calling fewer leads more.” No outbound recruiting. No scripts. Just structure, speed, and real coaching. “If you're not converting anything into your name, your database is too small.” You'll hear how they onboard new agents, use mentorship to drive growth, and create space for real conversations instead of surface-level tactics.
