Cybersecurity staffing in
USA.
The U.S. is the largest and most competitive talent market we serve — and the one where the specialist shortage bites hardest. We place across the country, on-site and remote. Security is the tightest talent market in technology — a 4.8M-person global workforce gap and roughly 2.1% unemployment. Cloud migration and identity modernization have made senior, contract-to-hire security the default engagement. We place both cleared and commercial security talent that generalist firms can't reach.

Questions
Cybersecurity hiring in USA, answered.
Can you place cloud security specialists?
Yes — cloud security is our largest and fastest-moving security category, driven by migration and identity work.
Contract, contract-to-hire, or perm?
All three. For senior security, contract-to-hire has become the default and we staff it routinely.
How do you screen for real skill?
Certification verification plus scenario-based technical screening — clearance and certs alone don't prove capability.
