πŸ”₯ Who's Recruiting at the Clearance Career Fair

The organizer, TalentAlly, has three employers confirmed so far. Boeing and Lockheed Martin need no introduction around here; both are fixtures of the aerospace and defense economy that stretches from Peterson Space Force Base out to Schriever. Sabel Systems rounds out the early list. TalentAlly says more employers will be announced as the date gets closer, so check the event page again the week before.

The fair is pitched at engineering and technology talent, and candidates who already hold a security clearance are a priority. That matters in the Springs, where a cleared engineer is one of the most sought-after hires in the region. If your clearance is active, put it at the very top of your resume.

⚠️ Read This Before You Register

This is not a walk-in-for-anyone event. TalentAlly's listing sets three requirements:

  • You work in engineering or technology.
  • You have at least two years of industry experience.
  • You are a U.S. citizen.

New grads and career changers without that experience will likely find the conversations short. The event page also does not publish an admission cost, so confirm the details when you register rather than assuming. Since it runs hybrid, you can also join virtually if you can't get away from work that Tuesday afternoon.

πŸ—ΊοΈ Wrong Event? Two Others This Fall

Different event, different day, different crowd. If you don't fit the clearance fair's requirements, these are open to everyone:

  • First Wednesday Job Fair, Wednesday, October 7: up to 15 employers, 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Pikes Peak Workforce Center's Citizens Service Center, 1675 Garden of the Gods Road. Free, with priority of service for veterans.
  • Community & Veterans Job Fair, Tuesday, November 10: the big one, with up to 150 employers at the Colorado Springs Event Center. See our full preview.

πŸ“‹ How to Show Up Ready

  • Several printed copies of a resume tailored to engineering or tech roles
  • Your clearance level and status, stated plainly near the top
  • A short list of programs, systems or tools you've worked on that you can discuss without crossing classification lines
  • A working camera and a quiet room if you're attending virtually

πŸ”Ž Where to Aim Before October 20

Three hours with recruiters is a head start, not the whole search. Cleared and engineering roles post across El Paso County every week, so run these now and walk in knowing who's hiring.
