Status
Drafted against listings.json as of 2026-09-02 (20 verified listings, 1 unverified — Vinnell Arabia — excluded below). Covers the three specialty values with the deepest verified bench right now. Two facets (GovCon Recruiting, DoD Contract Staffing) were prioritized per task instructions; the third slot went to Logistics & Life Support (5 verified) over Executive Search (GovCon) (4 verified) since it had more coverage. Per-listing blurbs are short and additive — they don't replace the fuller summary field already in listings.json, they're written for use directly under a company's name on the /by/specialty/<value>/ page. No prices, guarantees, fee percentages, time-to-fill, or placement counts appear anywhere below, including for Recruitmint (GovMint).
GovCon Recruiting (5 verified)
Intro
GovCon Recruiting is the general-contractor-labor category — firms here staff across disciplines for companies holding U.S. government contracts, rather than specializing in one skill lane like linguists or WPS security. Five verified firms carry this tag today, ranging from a century-old federal staffing group to a boutique cleared-search shop. If your requisition spans multiple job families on one contract, start here before narrowing to a specialty page like IT & Cyber GovCon or Executive Search.
Blurbs

DoD Contract Staffing (6 verified)
Intro
DoD Contract Staffing narrows GovCon work specifically to Department of Defense contract labor — the category most tied to clearance level and contract-vehicle timing. Six verified firms carry this tag, from large integrators with existing facility clearances to boutique shops built around a cleared-candidate database. Cross-check the region page too: several of these firms staff CONUS roles only, while others place directly into OCONUS theaters.

Logistics & Life Support (5 verified)
Intro
Logistics & Life Support covers the operational side of overseas contract work — DFAC operations, base maintenance, facilities, and life-support functions that keep a deployed workforce fed, housed, and running, distinct from the technical or security lanes. Five verified firms carry this tag, several of them also tagged LOGCAP, since the two categories overlap heavily on Army logistics contracts. This is the category to check first for multi-region task-order mobilizations rather than single-role hires.
