Uh, have you ever seen a federal job application requirements?

#1: not a felon

It doesn't sound like he's been convicted of a crime yet...

That's only for the plebs that apply through the normal means, not for savants whose skill balances the risk - they can put a few agents to track what this dude is doing, but its much harder to find another guy eith this much skill whos also not a felon.

Also this is all speculation ie I pulled it out of my ass but doesn't it sound plausible?

I mean sure, if you're the one applying. If they're offering they can choose whatever the hell criteria they want.
