Hey I'm planning to apply to OCS for Intel but I received an unfavorable pre-screening over the phone interview because I have family members that are residents of another country. I am US born and only hold citizenship here. I have never been and will never go to the country that my family is from. None of my family members have ever returned since moving here (naturalized citizens).
I believe that if the investigation were to go thru, it would be obvious that I am not necessarily friendly with that country. Neither is my family who literally had to escape because of a radical government. They were not treated well there and feared for their lives.
I am saddened at the unfavorable pre-screening because I am very passionate about what I want to do and I want a chance. I am getting my masters degree in software engineering this year and I'm not really interested in any of the other jobs. Is there anything I can do? Appeal, ask to be reconsidered, explain my situation, etc? Thanks in advance.
