Despite many misconceptions, today’s young construction professionals are driven, ambitious, and ready to prove themselves. We've recently placed some Assistant Supers, Assistant PMs, and Project Engineers who have come on board and proven themselves quickly. They bring fresh energy and ideas, as well as a strong work ethic, eager to make a mark and move up. Companies that recognize this will not only benefit from their hard work but also create loyal, long-term talent for themselves. #groundupconstructionrecruiting #youngconstructionprofessionals

When companies reach out to us, it’s often because they’re ready for a hiring process that’s both effective and personal. They need more than just a resume—they’re looking for a true fit, someone who shares their values and is ready to grow with the team. We work closely with our partners to understand their unique needs, culture, and goals, ensuring every candidate we bring is more than qualified—they’re the right addition to the team. #groundupconstructionrecruiting

We’re proud to have supported clients nationwide, helping talented people find their place in great companies coast to coast. Each successful placement has led to a chance for us to connect good people with opportunities that fit their values and goals. It means the world to us to play a role in building teams that will make a long-term impact in their communities. ?? #groundupconstructionrecruiting

We typically post jobs on LinkedIn or Indeed for every search we work on. But 90% of the time the candidates our partners hire from us aren't the ones that applied. They’re the ones that we cold-called or have spent time building relationships with to find them the right opportunity. Companies don't pay us to post jobs and hope the right person applies - that would be a waste of their money. They pay us because we're proactively building relationships with the construction professionals they're trying to hire, cold-calling candidates specifically for the opportunity someone hires us to help fill, and consistently building our brand leading to candidates actively reaching out to us for jobs. Have a problem recruiting and hiring people? Ground Up Construction Recruiting is your solution.

My clients that have the best hiring success give me immediate feedback after interviews, provide timely updates for candidates in the interview process, and are decisive. That's the secret to a great recruiting partnership. Nothing crazy, just great communication and the ability to make quick decisions. #groundupconstructionrecruiting?

As a husband-and-wife team, we’re continually fine-tuning how to make the most of our small but mighty operation. Each week, we find new ways to leverage our strengths, split responsibilities, and streamline our approach. From sourcing to strategizing to social media, we value the close communication that ensures every detail gets the attention it deserves. Working as a two-person team means every accomplishment feels personal, and every challenge is a shared one. Building our business together has been a journey that not only strengthens our partnership but also shapes a work-life balance we’re really proud of. We’re not just helping others find meaningful roles; we’re creating something meaningful for ourselves, too. #groundupconstructionrecruiting #husbandandwifeteam

Hire slow, fire quick. An old concept that doesn't work as well as it did in the past. You’re up against the clock when trying to hire these days. Whether it be the initial stages of getting the first interview setup, or when it comes down to putting out an offer - timing kills more deals than anything else. I'm not saying you should hire just anyone, but you gotta put an emphasis on speed and communication in your hiring process if you don't want to lose candidates. #groundupconstructionrecruiting

Our goal is to become an extension of any construction company we partner with. The more we know about a company, the better we can help. When we talk with candidates, we want to be loaded with information about the companies we represent so we can confidently answer as many questions as possible that come our way. By making people feel excited and certain about an opportunity from the initial screening stages, the better a company has at the final steps when it comes offer time. #groundupconstructionrecruiting
