Rent-A-Sourcer for Security Cleared Talent
We have spent two decades in recruiting the best talent across the industry and verticals, and we know cleared talent recruitment takes much more than just sourcing candidates.

Our Source, Outreach, Qualify, Schedule (S-O-Q-S) methodology helps you build a pre-validated talent pipeline from which your recruiters can close cleared candidates faster without losing the quality of hire.

How do we source the best security-cleared talent
Security-cleared talent is limited, and hence needs a strategic focus to engage them for any new opportunity. Here’s our tactic to find and attract these limited resources.
1
Passive Talent Discovery
We tap into the passive market and leverage niche networks and social communities to identify professionals with the right clearance levels, domain experience, and cultural fit.
2
Data-Driven Market Mapping
We map talent pools with a minute level of detail, including clearance levels, federal contract experience, geographic constraints, and skills to pinpoint realistic talent availability.
3
Personalized Strategic Cadence
We use a personalized and multiple-touchpoint outreach cadence to engage candidates, talking about their goals, stability, compensation, and growth ideas to build trust and spark interest.
