The Problem
When you browse a talent marketplace, you are guessing. You see a resume that claims '5 Years SOC Experience,' but you don't know:
Can they distinguish a true credential stuffing attack from a legitimate password reset workflow under time pressure?
Have they correlated alerts across EDR, SIEM, and network telemetry to map a complete attack chain?
Is their investigation methodology structured and defensible, or do they rely on gut instinct?
The Solution
ConnectDevs removes the guesswork. We don't just send profiles; we send Structured Intelligence. Every candidate is interviewed by SAM against the specific SOC challenges you care about. You don't guess if they are good. You know.

Global Talent Network
Most teams hiring SOC Analysts also need SIEM engineering, threat detection automation, and incident response capabilities.
Everything you need to know about sourcing, assessing, and hiring top SOC Analysts through our platform.
SAM's technical interview presents candidates with simulated alert queues containing mixed true threats and benign anomalies. They must articulate their triage methodology and prioritization logic. You receive a scored report showing their investigative reasoning under realistic conditions.
Senior SOC Analysts command average salaries around $140,000 annually. Staffing agencies typically extract 20-30% markups. ConnectDevs operates on a flat $69/mo subscription with zero markup, significantly lowering total cost of ownership.
The Scout agent searches 800M+ public profiles for signals indicating SIEM experience and incident response background. This delivers a targeted shortlist in days rather than the weeks typical of manual sourcing.
Tier 1 analysts handle initial triage and escalation at lower cost. Tier 2 analysts perform deep-dive investigations and containment. Your SOC maturity and alert volume determine the optimal mix. Scout can filter candidates by tier experience level.
Modern SOCs generate overwhelming telemetry volumes. Analysts who can write Python scripts and SIEM queries to automate repetitive triage dramatically outperform those relying solely on GUI-based investigation. Scout filters for demonstrable scripting proficiency alongside security fundamentals.
Every ConnectDevs engagement provides raw assessment data upfront, including competency scores on alert prioritization and false positive identification. Audit the candidate's triage methodology before investing interview time to minimize the risk of coverage gaps.
