OUR PARTNERS

The companies we work with to find and train trades talent.

Hiring in the trades works better when the training, the tools and the recruiting all line up. These are the companies we work with to help commercial contractors find people who can do the work.

WHY WE PARTNER

One job post doesn't reach the people you need.

Most of the skilled tradespeople contractors need already have a job. Others are still building their skills. Reaching both groups takes more than a job post.

That's why we work with partners at both ends of the pipeline:

  • Training partners help new techs build skills and help working techs earn the certifications contractors ask for.
  • Technology partners help us reach skilled people who aren't looking at job boards.

Each partner below does something we don't. Together, they help us give contractors a steadier flow of qualified candidates.

EDUCATION & TRAINING

Helping techs earn the certifications contractors ask for.

SkillCat

SkillCat is an online training platform for the skilled trades. Its courses run on a phone, so techs can learn on their own schedule, between jobs or after a shift. Courses cover HVAC, plumbing, electrical and maintenance work, and techs can earn certifications contractors look for, including EPA 608 and OSHA-10.

Why it matters for contractors: Certifications like EPA 608 are often a must-have for HVAC hires. Training that fits around a work schedule makes it easier for a new tech to get certified and stay certified, or for a current tech to grow into a bigger role.

Trade Talk A monthly hiring brief for commercial trades employers

What changed in your trade this month, and what to do about it.

One email a month, and only one. We write a separate issue for every trade we recruit in, so you get yours - not a round-up with your trade buried in paragraph nine. Every issue is written for the person actually doing the hiring.

  • Where wages moved in your trade, by market, and what that does to your next offer
  • How long roles like yours are taking to fill, and where it is getting worse
  • Interview and screening tactics that are landing candidates this month
  • What contractors competing for the same people are doing differently

Built on federal wage data, our own closed searches, and what we hear on the desk every week. Written for employers, not candidates. No pitch, no filler, one click to leave.

Pick your trade. That is the one issue you get, once a month.

One email a month. Your trade and your address, nothing else - we do not sell either, and you can unsubscribe from the bottom of any issue. Read this month's issue for your trade first →
