Candidate Recruitment

Candidate Recruitment is our original business - RecruitMilitary was founded in 1998 as a search firm specializing in connecting Corporate America with transitioning junior military officers. We now recruit among all individuals who have military backgrounds - men and women of all ranks and rates, veterans as well as transitioning military, members of the National Guard and reserve forces, and military spouses.

We begin a search for an employer by working with the employer's hiring managers and company executives to learn the company's culture and values, products and services, and hiring needs. After this education process, we determine which of our professional recruitment services is the right one for the client to move forward with. We then develop a written position specification that is our road map for our search on each separate position. Our certified search consultants begin their recruitment process utilizing their knowledge of military candidates to find the right prospects for you. They will use our vast database of resumes as well as other sources of candidate information to find individuals who might qualify for the position and be interested in it. Our team evaluates the individuals they identify and work to select the most suitable candidates. Our team then presents the "best available" candidates to the employer.

We work with transitioning military members as early as one year before they leave the service to prepare them for their job search and help them focus on their transition.

All of our search consultants are either veterans or active or former reservists, so they know where to look to find the perfect match for the job opening - which service branch, which rank or rate, which military occupational specialty.

In addition, all of our search consultants have obtained professional certification from AIRS, an internationally recognized provider of recruitment solutions, or are enrolled in courses leading to certification. Their specific certifications are Certified Internet Recruiter and Certified Diversity Recruiter.

The training leading to Certified Internet Recruiter certification helps our team use our database efficiently and helps them use the Internet to find qualified, employed men and women who are not actively looking for new jobs.

Our database is a rich source of minority and female candidates. It is 21.5% African-American, 9.3% Hispanic, and 1.3%, and 14.5% of the candidates are women. The training leading to Certified Diversity Recruiter certification helps our consultants place such candidates throughout Corporate America. It also helps them work outside our database to find even more minority and female personnel who have military backgrounds.
