*Candidates must be able to be hired directly by the agency without sponsorship. USC or Grn Card holders only

*Deadline to submit: 4 pm Wed, 2/11

Pls note: TWO ROLES . Although there are two roles, I am asking that you send only your TOP TWO candidates (vs 4) to avoid getting too many duplications. Any candidates after your initial two may be rejected. Choose and submit only your TOP TWO!

Role is 100% remote however if selected candidates will be required to attend monthly meetings onsite in Richmond. For this reason, the preference is for local Richmond candidates.
