Sequestration may be slowing your hiring now, but when it ends, you’ll need to find security-cleared talent quickly. Start building your pipeline of talent now. When the defense hiring market heats up, you’re in a great position to onboard security-cleared talent fast. The government will always need goods and services. The question is: Does your cleared talent management strategy include a mechanism to keep candidates ‘warm’ and ready, even as defense spending cools? As your company plans for the new fiscal year, make sure building your cleared talent pipeline is a part of the conversation.
