How long was client searching prior to our involvement?

6 Months

Did client have internal recruiting resources?

Yes, they have a local HR & Recruitment team.

Why was this a real problem for the client?

The client has seen an impressive increase in their backlog over the past 18 months. Due to this, they have been growing their field team and field management team commensurately. They have had great internal success in recruiting and retaining technician level candidates, however have been historically struggling to locate Superintendent level individuals. Due to this, the current team of Superintendents have been working more overtime then they enjoy. To ensure that the moral of the organization was not compromised, they needed to hire an individual to take over some of this work so that they did not burn out their current team.

How did this opportunity help the candidate?

The candidate was traveling nationwide 70%-80%. This was stopping him from seeing his family and he felt as if he was missing out on his children’s and grandchildren’s formative years. This opportunity allows him to stay within a few hours’ drive of his home and family so that the candidate can see his family and have the home life he has always wanted.
