10 Percent Recruiting

10 Percent Recruiting is not a security company, and it's worth being precise about that on a board full of them. It's a recruiting and career-services firm operating in the staffing and recruiting vertical, built around a single service: matching job seekers with experienced recruiters who help them prepare for and land their next role. The pitch is process, not product - candidates get paired with a recruiter who works with them on readiness and positioning ahead of interviews and offers.

The mechanism is straightforward. Candidates connect with recruiters described as experienced and friendly, who assist them in preparing for their next job opportunity. No technical domains, proprietary tooling, or platform claims are on the table here; the operating unit is the recruiter-candidate relationship, and the company states building relationships as a core value. The tone is explicitly collaborative and journey-oriented.

For cybersecurity candidates specifically, the useful framing is this: 10 Percent Recruiting offers career support and recruiter access rather than security engineering work, threat research, or product development. Founding year, team size, funding, and geographic presence are not stated. Candidates evaluating the service should weigh what a recruiting partner can and cannot substitute for - preparation and access, yes; hands-on security scope, no.
