The Alabama Air National Guard is conducting market research to identify vendors for a strategic partnership to enhance digital recruiting targeting early-career talent (ages 17-28) at higher education institutions nationwide. The anticipated period of performance is one year from contract award. Required capabilities include access to a nationwide network of colleges and technical schools, tools for proactive candidate engagement (targeting at least 60,000 pre-qualified candidates annually), and a centralized employer page for branding and job postings. Vendors must also support unlimited job postings, achieve a minimum 15% job view-to-application conversion rate, and provide detailed quarterly performance reports with benchmarking analysis. No budget amount is specified, and the location for performance is not explicitly stated beyond serving a national network of institutions.
