ClearanceJobs Connect San Antonio showcased what happens when the cleared workforce comes together with a shared purpose: building a mission-ready national security community.
The San Antonio event convened cleared professionals, recruiters, government stakeholders, and industry leaders for a day of meaningful conversation around the realities of cleared hiring, workforce readiness, leadership, and emerging technology. From candid discussions about recruiting challenges to forward-looking insights on talent development, Connect San Antonio reflected both the urgency and optimism shaping today’s cleared workforce.
San Antonio’s deep military and defense roots provided a powerful backdrop for conversations focused on mission alignment, trust, and long-term workforce sustainability. Speakers and panelists shared practical strategies, real-world lessons, and actionable ideas that attendees could take back to their organizations immediately. Just as importantly, the event created space for connection—bringing together people who understand the unique demands of cleared work and the responsibility that comes with it.
This highlight video captures those moments: the energy in the room, the collaboration on stage, and the shared commitment to strengthening the national security workforce.
Looking ahead, ClearanceJobs Connect returns in 2026, bringing this same community-driven experience to four cities:
San Diego (March 24 & 25), Colorado Springs (July), Reston (October 15 & 16), and San Antonio (November).
Speaker proposals are now open for all 2026 Connect events. ClearanceJobs is seeking voices from across the ecosystem—industry, government, academia, and the cleared community—who are ready to share insights, lessons learned, and forward-thinking ideas.
If you’re shaping the future of cleared careers, recruiting, policy, or workforce development, ClearanceJobs Connect is your platform.
