You won the work. Now you need people who already hold the clearance and the polygraph. Careerscape recruits cleared engineers, IT professionals and mission support staff for defense and intelligence contractors, and you pay nothing until you hire.
A polygraph can't be bought or rushed. The government schedules it, so the only quick way to fill a polygraph seat is to find someone who already has one. Most of those people aren't looking for a job, and a job posting alone rarely reaches them.
That's the work we do. Our recruiters contact cleared professionals directly, talk with each one, and confirm their clearance level, polygraph type and polygraph date before you see a resume. We work with prime contractors and subcontractors, including small businesses that don't have a recruiting team of their own.
Active DoD Secret and Top Secret clearances for IT, engineering and support roles.
Top Secret with SCI eligibility, for intelligence community and DoD programs.
A current counterintelligence-scope polygraph, required on many DoD and intelligence programs.
The smallest pool in cleared hiring. We look for people who already hold a full scope polygraph.
These are roles our recruiters work on today. If yours isn't listed, send us the job description.

We recruit to your salary range and tell you early when the market won't meet it, so a search doesn't stall for weeks.
Cleared recruiting means finding and hiring people who already hold an active U.S. security clearance, such as Secret, Top Secret or TS/SCI, often with a polygraph. Government contractors use cleared recruiters because clearances and polygraphs take months to get, and only the government can grant them.
Yes. We recruit candidates who already hold an active CI polygraph or full scope polygraph. They are the hardest people to find in cleared hiring, so we give you an honest view of the timeline when you send the role.
Yes, that's the usual case. We look for candidates whose clearance and polygraph are already active, so nothing needs sponsoring.
We ask every candidate for their clearance level, polygraph type, and the dates of their last polygraph and investigation, and we put that on the submission. Your facility security officer makes the official verification.
We work on contingency. It costs nothing to start a search, and there is no fee unless you hire a candidate we introduced. Send us the role and we'll share our agreement.
Across the United States. Our cleared searches are most often in Northern Virginia, Maryland, Washington DC, Colorado and Florida.
