A letter from our founder
Why Military Talent Match exists.
Our vision, our plans, and our intent — for the veterans we represent and the employers who hire them. Stated plainly, and signed.
When I left the military, I realized something that so many veterans experience: we have valuable skills, leadership, and resilience, but those qualities don't always translate well onto a resume. Too often, talented veterans are overlooked because hiring systems focus on keywords instead of the person behind the experience.
That's why Military Talent Match was created.
Our mission is simple — to help veterans connect with meaningful careers while protecting their privacy and putting them in control of the process. Veterans remain anonymous until they decide they're ready to take the first step; nothing is shared without their permission, and our services are free to veterans.
We take the time to learn about the people we represent — and their career goals — and match them with employers that help them reach those goals. Every recommendation is backed by real, reviewed experience and thoughtful matching, giving both veterans and employers confidence throughout the hiring process.
To my fellow veterans: you don't have to navigate the transition to civilian employment alone. Military Talent Match is here to support you, advocate for you, and help you find opportunities where your skills and service are truly valued.
To employers: we're committed to making hiring veterans easier and more effective. Our goal is to provide qualified, well-matched candidates quickly, with transparency and accountability every step of the way. We welcome the opportunity to earn your trust through the quality of our work.
The idea
Three moves, in order. Each one funds and strengthens the next.
Represent
Veterans join the Ready Room, build a real career plan with the community behind them, and appear to employers by callsign only. Nothing about you moves without your consent.
Place
Employers bring a requirement — a solicitation, an LCAT sheet, a role. Our engine matches it against vetted people deterministically: same requirement, same answer, every time. Introductions come through MTM.
Build
Every placement deepens the data and trust that job boards can't copy: who is really available, what they can really do, and what it really takes to hire them. That is the platform we're building — in the open, placement by placement.
Today and next
What this means for you
For candidates
Live in the Ready Room today
- A community, not a queue — a member feed, mentorship, and people who've made the same transition.
- An interactive 1-3-5-year Career Map — certifications in order, roles and timing, pay bands built from public Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Recalculates as your profile grows.
- Your military experience, translated — MOS/AFSC/rating to civilian careers, from the official crosswalk.
- A jobs marketplace — federal and cleared openings refreshed nightly, with one-button "work this with MTM" representation.
- The Bench, on your terms — opt in and verified employers can find you by callsign. Your legal name and your number stay private until you choose to engage.
Our intent: always free for candidates. Your profile is never sold, never scraped into a resume database, never shown beyond what you opted into. You are represented — introductions come through MTM, and you say yes or no to every one.
For employers
Live for verified partners today
- The LCAT Scanner — free — upload or paste a solicitation; every extracted requirement is quoted verbatim from your own document or not shown, with a downloadable compliance matrix and an eligibility count against our bench.
- Vetted slates in 72 hours — deterministic, auditable matching against your stated requirements, with the gap named on every near-miss.
- Cleared talent, handled correctly — clearance details are candidate-attested and reviewed; your own FSO verifies in DISS. We never store or transmit SSNs or dates of birth — verification stays where it belongs.
- A veteran-outreach record you can file — every search and request is logged for your VEVRAA outreach documentation, automatically.
- A certified VOSB partner — countable toward veteran-owned subcontracting goals; set-aside aligned under VA Vets First.
Our intent: depth before breadth — coverage you can staff a contract with, vertical by vertical, starting with cleared and GovCon IT. Standing requirement alerts the moment a qualifying candidate joins. And as placements compound: the first talent marketplace where every profile is a real, vetted, available veteran.
Our intent, in writing
The rules we build by
The road
Where this goes
The agency
Cleared and GovCon IT first: scan a solicitation free, see coverage, get a vetted slate in 72 hours. Healthcare and support talent served from the same bench.
Depth per vertical
A bench dense enough to staff whole contracts — with standing alerts, sharper coverage tooling, and proposal-stage support for primes bidding cleared work.
The platform
A veteran-first talent marketplace built on our own placement data — real availability, real capability, proven fit. Built in the open, funded by the work itself.
Build it with us
Two doors. One mission.
Whether you're planning your transition or staffing a contract, the Ready Room is where it happens.
Always free for candidates.
