4 of our 17 current openings here require an active clearance, so most do not. Where one is needed we say so on the posting, because a crossover takes time and it is better known up front.

Does Chipton-Ross have an office in Puget Sound?

Not in Puget Sound itself. the Puget Sound region is recruited from our Playa Del Rey, CA office on 800.927.9318, and interviews and onboarding are handled remotely.

Is the work contract or permanent?

Both, though most of what we place in the Puget Sound region is contract — typically six to twelve months with extensions, tied to a programme or a production rate. Direct-hire placements are made as well, and contract-to-hire is common where a client wants to see someone work first.

Staffing Agency in Puget Sound, WA | Commercial Aerospace Staffing in the Puget Sound Region

Puget Sound is commercial airframe country — final assembly at Renton and Everett and a supplier base spread through Kent, Auburn and Tukwila. Hiring here tracks production rate: a rate increase means assemblers and inspectors quickly, and a pause means the opposite. Our book in the region is smaller than on the Gulf Coast but it is long-standing, and commercial aerospace is the work Chipton-Ross was built on.
