For candidates
Register once and our practice-area recruiters match you to live openings in your discipline and preferred locations, supporting enterprise security programs at U.S. employers. Our roles span contract, contract-to-hire, and direct hire; a recruiter will tell you which before you apply, along with the pay band and the customer's timeline.
You always know where you stand. Every application confirmation, interview reminder, and status change is communicated — by email, and by text message if you opt in. Your resume is never submitted to an employer without your permission.
What happens after you register
- A practice-area recruiter reviews your profile against open and pipeline roles in your discipline and preferred locations.
- When there is a match, we contact you first. Your resume is never submitted to any employer without your permission.
- We coordinate interviews end to end: scheduling, preparation notes, day-before SMS reminders, and rescheduling when plans change.
- At offer stage we advise on the package and manage the paperwork through your first day.
- Your record stays active for future roles until you ask us to close it. Reply STOP at any time to end SMS updates.
SMS updates, on your terms
Candidates tell us email alone is not enough when interviews move quickly. With your explicit consent, CISO Cyber Talent sends transactional SMS messages tied to your real activity:
- Job match alerts when new roles fit your preferences
- Application received confirmations
- Interview reminders before every scheduled round
- Reschedule and status-change notices
- Offer-stage updates
Consent is voluntary and never a condition of applying. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel; HELP for help.

Email gets buried, and interviews move fast — most of our customers want feedback the same day. Texting is the most reliable way we have found to reach a candidate when a matching role opens or an interview time shifts. We only message you about your own candidacy, and you can stop it at any time by replying STOP.
