Trade Hounds announces the launch of its Jobs platform, which connects contractors directly with the skilled tradespeople they’re seeking to hire. Unlike other job boards serving the industry, Trade Hounds has built a vast community of 175,000 tradespeople that are already using the platform to showcase their work, build professional profiles, and expand their networks.
Existing professional platforms have failed to meet the unique needs of the $1.3 trillion construction industry, one of the largest in the world. Sourcing qualified talent remains a huge challenge for contractors and the industry at-large. Trade Hounds believes a construction-only hiring platform is what’s needed to meet the unique demands of both workers and employers in construction. The company has taken what it calls a “worker-first approach” by building a platform that workers use for a variety of professional reasons—showcasing work, building professional profiles, and networking. Now that Trade Hounds has amassed more than 175,000 workers, they’re enabling contractors to tap into their deep and vast community of skilled tradespeople.
Trade Hounds’ Jobs platform is being introduced at a time when the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has displaced construction workers and delayed projects. While disruption from the pandemic lingers, many markets are experiencing a strong recovery, with permitting and jobs starting to pick up. The Jobs platform is helping to put people back to work and advance the progress of critical construction projects across the country. For more, visit www.tradehounds.com.
