How do you vet a recruitment partner? Seek one who is truly consultative and diagnostic, rather than an order taker. Some firms will just run with your job description and send resumes, hoping for the best. 👎 Recently we had project manager we placed at an architectural millwork firm that didn’t work out. Instead of simply refilling the position, we asked for a diagnostic call first to refine our strategy. Over 45 minutes, we explored their organizational structure and the pressures they faced. Turns out their PM's were managing the production schedule (in their in house shop) AND the install schedule for their field crew... for many projects at once. They were spread thin. We found that the real need was for someone to manage shop production exclusively, freeing up the existing PM's time to manage a higher volume of installs. In less than a week we had a Shop Foreman start with them that had over 15 years experience in millwork. While this solution strayed from "the way they'd always done it" - it has proved highly effective. A great recruiting relationship involves being open to new ideas and feedback, and embraces innovative solutions from partners who understand diverse industry practices.

What is important when hiring an Insulation company... This is a good question considering everyone says the exact same thing. "We do quality work" "We can work with deadlines" I see these being the most common ones in the industry How I see it is... How well does the company know you? Do they even take time to ask you specific questions about your operations and what is most important to you? or Do they just ask you "How is your day going" and then tell you about the bid... We believe that to have a successful partnership, there has to be a relationship between you and the company you're hiring. Where you feel they are doing everything they can to take care of you. Comment what are your main concerns when partnering up with Subcontractors in general.
