Recruiting, hiring, and onboarding in the trades industry are fractured systems. Companies either provide new employees with tools and set them loose, implement sophisticated training programs for new hires, or recruit tradespeople right out of school through apprenticeship programs. How can you unify these systems to identify skilled workers?
With 40 years of trade experience starting in his family’s business, Brian Drucks repeatedly encountered recruitment challenges.
