Technical Lead Resource Recruiter

Mindseeker initially launched as an IT Staffing company in early 2000 to support the explosive growth in Internet-related technology and to provide a reliable and scalable staffing service to many of the emerging high-tech companies. Our goal was to provide a level of quality staffing that seemed to be missing from the fast-paced staffing Industry. As our business grew, we began working across different industry verticals, increasing our capabilities and expanding our footprint. Mindseeker was now supporting emerging business, Fortune 500 companies and government agencies and it soon became evident that incorporating a professional service model into our business model would be a logical and natural progression for the business.  Effective January of 2020, Mindseeker, Inc., is now focused solely on the government marketplace as we’ve separated our commercial business by forming a new entity, Mindseeker Professional Services, Inc. (MPS). Mindseeker now exclusively supports federal agencies across Civilian, DoD and Intelligence communities.
