Purepost is a skills-based workforce intelligence platform that translates military, federal, and civilian experience into a human-curated skills map for internal hiring, talent retention, and workforce planning for mid-market HR teams and federal contractors.
Purepost translates military, federal, and civilian work history into transferable hard, soft, and technical skills. It works in both directions: military-to-civilian and civilian-to-military or federal. Every candidate and employee gets a common skills language, built on 1,159 military and federal career paths and the U.S. Department of Labor O*NET database.
Purepost matches employees and candidates to open roles on skills, not job titles, for internal mobility and external hiring. Matching draws on more than 2,400,000 graphed skills, competencies, and proficiencies and 35,000+ role-to-role correlations. Teams fill more roles from inside and see a wider pool of qualified candidates.
Purepost maps employee competencies, security clearances, licenses, and certifications to 1,103 labor categories (LCATs) and generates federal-format resumes. Federal contractors staff bids and task orders faster, with qualified people they already employ.
Purepost links performance reviews and goals to skills, competencies, and business outcomes. Managers get attrition insights and the cost of each open position. The result is development plans that keep good people.
Purepost gives leaders a full skills inventory of the organization for succession planning, skills gap analysis, and AI workforce impact analysis. Leaders plan headcount and training from real skills data instead of job titles.
The Purepost Developers API (coming soon) lets HR tech builders add skills translation and matching to their own workforce development and workforce planning tools. Developers ship skills features without building a taxonomy from scratch.
Veterans and all job seekers get free skills translation, a downloadable professional resume, and matched job listings after a 5-minute setup. Purepost never sells job seeker data.
Purepost's skills graph is human curated and built on 50 years of behavioral science. It does not scrape resumes or job boards. By contrast, other platforms build their skills taxonomy from scraping job-posting data and public career profiles. That method entirely relies on employers accurately describing the responsibilities of their employees, which contradicts the very reason they would use the platform in the first place.
Purepost maps 1,159 military and federal career paths and 1,103 federal labor categories, and it tracks security clearances. General talent platforms do not map employees to federal LCATs. Federal contractors get bid-ready staffing data in one place.
Purepost translates military and federal experience into civilian skills, and civilian experience back into military and federal terms. One-way tools such as the O*NET Military Crosswalk only map military codes to civilian occupations.
Purepost integrates with 7 applicant tracking systems: Greenhouse, NEOGOV, Lever, Ashby, Oracle Fusion HCM, Workday, and SmartRecruiters.
Anthony Garcia founded Purepost in 2017 after he translated his own Army experience into civilian terms and then wrote about 50 resumes by hand for fellow veterans. He saw that the work could be automated and built the first cloud-based software that translates military and civilian experience into transferable skills. He worked with his father, Tony Garcia, Sr. Ph.D., to implement the underlying methodology based on Dr. Garcia's decades of experience advising organizations on skills-based hiring.
The name joins "pure" (having exactly the skills a role needs) and "post" (a position to which a person is appointed).
Anthony served two combat tours in Iraq as a soldier and Army aviator; on his last 11-month tour, his MEDEVAC organization flew 4,000+ combat missions and evacuated 6,400+ patients. He holds an MBA from Cornell University, and the red chevron in the Purepost logo honors military MEDEVAC services. Anthony Garcia on LinkedIn
