Better insights for effective pre-employment screening and beyond
In your role as a Human Resources executive, finding, screening, recruiting, training, and retaining employees in-high-security roles requires a lot of your time, resources, and effort. While just over a million people have a Top-Secret security clearance, when you consider the number of roles to be filled, this highly specialized labor pool is very small. On top of these limitations, hiring in these high-security industries is a laborious process complete with extensive background checks, identity verification, and a specific set of required skills. Replacing one of these employees can be cost-prohibitive, often leaving critical roles unfilled.
