What ClearedJobs.Net does

ClearedJobs.Net, founded in 2001 and headquartered in the Washington D.C. metro area (Falls Church, VA), operates a specialty online job board and job fair business dedicated to security-cleared professionals seeking roles across the U.S. defense, intelligence, and government contracting sectors. The platform enables job seekers to filter and apply to positions by clearance level (Public Trust through TS/SCI plus CI or FS polygraph, plus DoE L/Q and DHS), post resumes, and engage with employers at nationwide in-person and virtual Cleared Job Fairs, while the Security Cleared Jobs Podcast, Military Monday webinars, blog, and YouTube channel provide an adjacent content ecosystem for transitioning veterans and experienced cleared professionals. The company maintains a resume database accessible to employers with clearance and veteran-identification filters and an AI-powered Auto Match capability that maps candidates to openings by clearance level, skills, and preferences.

The employer side of the business is built around four primary revenue streams: job posting subscriptions on flexible packages with a parking-space rotation model, paid access to the resume database, advertising and Featured Employer brand programs, and per-event Cleared Job Fair participation fees. Distribution is a hybrid of self-serve online job posting, a customer service team handling inside sales, and professional account managers running a field-sales motion — staffed predominantly by veterans and military spouses with cleared-recruiting experience. Customer logos span the major U.S. defense and intelligence primes and subcontractors (Leidos, CACI, Peraton, Amentum, General Dynamics IT, SAIC, Booz Allen Hamilton, KBR, BAE Systems, Arcfield, Core4ce, System High), with 500+ registered employers and 13,000-20,000+ active job listings on the platform at any given time. The underlying technology stack is provided by Web Scribble Solutions, Inc.

ClearedJobs.Net is privately held, has not disclosed any external funding rounds or M&A activity, and operates with a small (11-50 employee) organization that has run continuously for more than 23 years, suggesting a self-funded, cash-flowing niche operator rather than a venture-backed scaleup. Pricing to employers is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; job-seeker accounts are free.

Emerging players

• Dice: Dice is a tech-focused job board that overlaps with ClearedJobs.Net's technical-professionals segment (software engineers, cybersecurity, data scientists) where clearances are increasingly in demand. Comparable subscription-and-resume-database model.
• USAJobs: USAJobs is the U.S. federal government's official job portal for federal positions including cleared roles. Not a direct paid competitor, but it captures a share of cleared job seeker supply and demand that would otherwise flow through ClearedJobs.Net.
• Hiring Our Heroes: Hiring Our Heroes (U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation) hosts veteran-focused job fairs and a fellowship program connecting veterans — including those with clearances — to employers. Overlaps with ClearedJobs.Net's military-transition segment and event-driven GTM.

Broad incumbents

• LinkedIn: LinkedIn operates the dominant professional network and a massive job board that includes cleared defense and intelligence roles. Its scale, free job posting tier, and AI-driven candidate matching compete head-on with ClearedJobs.Net's subscription model and Auto Match feature.
• Monster: Monster is a long-established general job board with broad employer reach and resume database access. While less dominant than LinkedIn or Indeed, it competes for the same employer recruitment budgets in the cleared and defense segment.
• ZipRecruiter: ZipRecruiter is a mass-market job marketplace and ATS with AI-driven matching. Competes for employer recruitment budgets across roles, including the cleared defense segment, often at lower price points than niche specialists.
• Indeed: Indeed is the world's largest general job board and aggregator, listing significant volume of cleared defense and government contractor roles. Competes on free posting reach and resume database scale, pressuring ClearedJobs.Net's employer-side pricing power.

Direct peers

• ClearanceJobs: ClearanceJobs.com is the most direct competitor — an online job board and career network exclusively for security-cleared professionals with employer resume database access and job fair programming. Closely mirrors ClearedJobs.Net's product set, customer base (defense contractors and intel agencies), and target persona.
• RecruitMilitary: RecruitMilitary runs career fairs and a job board focused on military veterans transitioning to civilian careers — a strongly overlapping audience with ClearedJobs.Net's veteran and transitioning-military segment, with similar event-driven monetization.
• Military.com: Military.com operates a large veteran career site and job board with a focus on military-to-civilian transition, overlapping with ClearedJobs.Net's veteran and cleared-candidate segments. Comparable content-plus-jobs flywheel, though broader in scope.
