July 27, 2006 - MilitaryStars, the nation´s largest military career expo company, continued its rollout of its ClearedStars Division with announcement of the ClearedStars Pacific Regional Security-Cleared Career Expo today. The event, taking place August 25th in Seattle, WA, will comprise hundreds of pre-registered military and civilian job seekers with security clearances and an estimated 20 plus employers looking for security clearance professionals.
"At our last ClearedStars event in Baltimore, 100 percent of our employers noted that they would recommend the event to others compared to more common hiring events they´d attended," stated MilitaryStars President Todd Hecht. "Even more along that line, all candidates had security clearances, 60 percent had Top Secret clearances and 43 percent had diversity backgrounds. Equally, most companies were surprised at the number of candidates that still had active clearances, which dramatically saves employer time and resources on the backend after the hire is made.
"Now, we´re bringing the event to candidates and employers alike in the Pacific Northwest, as this region has long maintained a wealth of security-cleared individuals as well as notable national and global business entities that stand to benefit from our cleared candidates," said Hecht.
"ClearedStars events are like MilitaryStars - very functional and workaholic. The Stars personnel keep it very ´upfront´ for all who attend," said Gene Fletcher with Vance International, a global security and consulting services firm.
Slated for Friday, August 25th, 12pm - 5pm at the Marriott Sea-Tac Airport Hotel in Seattle, the security clearance hiring event will be entirely free to cleared military and civilian job seekers.
"ClearedStars Provides an outstanding opportunity to network with employers seeking the highest-quality security cleared personnel. A sure way to make the most of transition," said one military security clearance holder at a previous ClearedStars event.
