Our Candidates

Expand your hiring reach, gain visibility, and tap into the largest marketplace of career-minded, cleared professionals – anywhere.

In today’s tough marketplace, there is no denying that cleared talent is at an all-time low. However, ClearanceJobs continues to see increased candidate registrations year over year. And, nearly 60% of them are the coveted passive – meaning they’re currently employed, but open to hearing about new opportunities.

WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT OUR CANDIDATES?

Cleared candidates are in high demand – not just from cleared companies, but non-cleared companies too. Even though they’re satisfied with their jobs and salary, they’re motivated to make a move for a higher salary. This means recruiters need to focus not only on acquiring new cleared hires – you need to focus on building your talent pipelines and retaining valued employees. ClearanceJobs has the suite of tools to help you do that.

We survey our candidates regularly, and they’ve told us:

54%

Very or somewhat satisfied with their jobs

85%

Somewhat to very likely to accept a new job in the next year

50%

Have some type of career certification

61%

Have 10+ years of experience


our-candidates-referrals

40% - REFERRALS

40% of our registered candidates either hear about us from a friend, a military transition office, or through networking.

our-candidates-search-engine

35% - SEARCH ENGINE MARKETING

ClearanceJobs enjoys a high search engine ranking, so when candidates search for security-cleared jobs or topics on Google, Yahoo, or Bing, our site is at the top of natural search results.

our-candidates-cross-posting

15% - CROSS-POSTING AND PARTNERS

Jobs posted on ClearanceJobs are broadcast to a wide network of job aggregators, social networks, defense and military sites, and ClearanceJobs partners. We’re everywhere, so you don’t have to be.

our-candidates-advertising

10% - MISCELLANEOUS ADVERTISING

ClearanceJobs uses traditional and non-traditional marketing to attract candidates, so you’re just as likely to see us on a YouTube segment as a billboard campaign in the D.C. Metrorail system. You can’t avoid us, and neither can candidates.

SECURITY CLEARANCE VERIFICATION

ClearanceJobs is restricted to U.S. citizens with active or current security clearance. Eligible candidates must self-verify before registering.

To keep a clean database, ClearanceJobs  automatically removes candidates daily due to inactivity on the site.
