Hi! Is this limited to U.S. citizens only, or people with existing work authorization?
Would the USDS consider foreigners who don't have a work visa for the U.S.?

I'm not part of the USDS, but I do work for the feds. There are some exceptions for senior executive positions and other exception jobs, but for run of the mill civil service jobs you must be a US citizen.

I don't believe the 4-6 weeks timeline includes applying for and receiving a security clearance before starting?
