Our Work Speaks — But So Do Our Clients

“Three Cords helped us staff an entire proposal team—writers, SMEs, and cleared technical roles—in record time. Their understanding of federal staffing needs is unmatched.

Senior Proposal Manager, GovCon Consulting Firm

Their recruiters feel like an extension of our internal team. Proactive, clear communicators, and laser-focused on delivery.

Program Manager, Cleared IT Contract

From kickoff to candidate delivery, the process was seamless. We especially appreciated their discretion during our executive search—we landed a perfect fit without ever posting the role.

HR Manager, Aerospace Tech Firm

They’re not just a staffing firm. They understand proposal timelines, color teams, and how the federal contracting cycle actually works. We don’t have to teach them—just plug them in.

VP of Capture, DoD Contractor

Three Cords filled five cleared positions in under 30 days—something we’ve struggled to do for months with other vendors. Their speed, accuracy, and understanding of our culture was spot on.
