The Problem/Opportunity
The Client needed to submit key resumes for the Defense Commissary Agency (DECA) contract having nine key positions. The main challenges faced while recruiting for these positions were:
- The positions required a Secret clearance and two mandatory certifications – Baseline certification and a Windows Computing Environment certification
- The contract was in Fort Lee, VA, where there is a limited pool of relevant candidates. The positions were onsite, and candidates were unwilling to relocate to the performance location from other parts of the country, as they were strictly looking for a remote or hybrid opportunity
