[Follow me to get security clearance, intelligence community, espionage, national security and defense contracting updates in exclusive interviews with IC and government leaders]

I am a busy bee (even though the ClearanceJobs mascot is a secret squirrel) - dedicated to collaboration and experienced in blogging, technical recruiting, marketing, outreach and communications.

Work ethic is EVERYTHING, so with a demonstrated history in achieving goals and establishing efficiency metrics, I believe in innovative teams: building them up to be productive, thinking outside the box & working toward a valuable mission. I thrive in management, community organizing, interviewing, training, and marketing in the Government, private and nonprofit sectors.

If I'm not working, you can find me in the woods, being an activist for wildlife & the people of Appalachia, at live music, drinking a beer or making a craft!

Your Top Recruiting Problems and How to Solve Them
ClearanceJobs.com
September 13, 2022
Though it may seem like the focus on hiring in national security has never been higher, recruitment
and the hiring process were a focus in World War II, as well. Organizations found themselves faced
with gaps in the workplace that resulted from the call to join the military. Vacancies skyrocketed
creating a new kind of hiring business: recruiting firms.
Fast forward more than three quarters of a century later, and we are still experiencing the
vacancies that birthed the recruitment lifecycle in the first place. The most important piece of DoD
programs are the people. And as a major arm of the security clearance world, recruiting can be the
most challenging aspect of keeping national security operations in business.
Attracting the perfect fit for a role, hiring qualified talent quickly, ensuring the candidate
experience is a positive one, and utilizing data-driven methods to make sure you are successful
are challenges all recruiting teams experience. But through good advertising, streamlining hiring
processes, getting the correct HR/recruiting systems in place, and setting yourself apart from the
competition, your top recruiting problems can be (somewhat) solved.
