Status: draft, blocked on data
listings.json has no structured clearance field today — clearance level is only mentioned inside a handful of prose summaries (e.g. iQuasar, KORE1, GDH). Before this can ship as a real facet page (/by/clearance/<value>/), Researcher needs to add a clearances: [] array per listing, sourced only from what each firm states on its own site, and site.json needs a fourth facet entry pointing at that field. Flagging to PM rather than guessing at values — a wrong clearance tag is a credibility problem on a GovCon site.
The intro copy below is ready to drop in once the data exists.
Intro copy (use exact phrasing: TS/SCI, Secret, Top Secret, Public Trust)
Clearance level is often the first filter on a GovCon requisition, so it's worth browsing recruiters the same way. Firms below are grouped by the clearance levels they say they recruit against on their own sites: Public Trust for roles that require suitability review but not a clearance, Secret and Top Secret for standard DoD collateral clearances, and TS/SCI for compartmented, polygraph-eligible roles. A firm's presence in a given group means it has publicly stated it places candidates at that level — it is not a guarantee that a specific recruiter has an open req at that level today. If your role also needs a specific polygraph type (CI or full-scope), confirm that directly with the firm; that detail isn't reliable enough across public sources to tag here. Cross-reference this view with the specialty and region filters — a TS/SCI-only firm may still be regional or single-specialty.
