Do all CIA and NSA cleared individuals have an ISSA poly/clearance. If not, how do I recruit ISSA candidates?

Question

I am new to recruiting for cleared individuals and I just received a large order for ISSA cleared candidates in the DC area. How do I find these types of candidates? I have already tried the job boards

Answer 1

Well, for one thing you _don't_ post to a public board that you are recruiting people with security clearances.

Recruiting people with clearances requires some creativity in the job description. There are certain keywords that people with clearances will recognize. Find out exactly what skills are required for the job and put that in the vacancy announcement. Sprinkle a few of those keywords so that people with clearances know you are looking for them.

Then start sorting the resumes to find people who either have the clearance or appear capable of qualifying for the clearance. (Hint: if you find a cleared/clearable applicant - take him because it is easier and cheaper to train somebody at a new job than it is to get them a clearance.)

If finding/hiring people for clearance-required positions were easy - they would not have had to use an outside vendor.

An apology isn't enough. The republicans playing politics with the lives of Americans is getting really old. It is time for the Republicans to clean up there house starting with Darrell, then Boehner followed by Michelle Bachman. The way the republicans have been behaving since president Obama has been elected is inexcusable which is why they are losers. We need to elect people that take their jobs seriously and the rest can all go to Fox.
