3 Web Sites to Find Laborers For Your Construction Business

Greg Martin • March 3, 2022

Finding candidates to fill your open skilled labor positions

You’re not the only construction business that is hard pressed for workers these days. Many companies begin their labor hunt on the internet to leverage technology, which isn’t a bad strategy. Online job sites can be a great resource for companies looking to hire ASAP, but many provide an overwhelming array of listings. Zip recruiter and Indeed are brimming with open positions but they may not be the best option for most construction companies looking for labor positions. To help with your labor search, we have identified 3 construction specific job boards for you to consider.


1. ConstructionJobs.com


This website allows construction companies to post jobs in specific industry categories like:


  • Commercial
  • Engineering
  • Heavy Civil
  • Power/Energy
  • Residential
  • Specialty

 

This site also makes it easy to review the resumes and qualifications of potential hires. You can even search for skilled workers based on your own criteria.


2. iHireConstruction.com


iHireConstruction advertises 2,850 new construction jobs added on a daily basis. It is also noteworthy to mention that among 500,000 workers registered with iHireConstruction.com, 88% of them have more than 1 year experience in their given field according to their web site.


3. ConstructionJobForce.com


Finally, ConstructionJobForce is a job board focused on bringing quality candidates to businesses in need of construction workers, operators, technicians, and supervisors. This site also boasts a blog that has loads of information on the best ways to write a job description, how to find the best candidates and how to sift through the resumes once a position has been posted (similar to Indeed.com’s resources).



There’s no denying the current shortage of skilled and unskilled construction workers our industries are missing but the labor pool is far from dry. Employers just need to look a little deeper—and try a little harder—to find the workers they want. At Virtus Support Services, we work alongside you and your team to help streamline your business. Whether it is finding candidates for an open position or by developing operations that lead to profitable and sustainable growth or helping with your back-office operations, we will work together to scale your business.
