Amundson Group does not publish a numeric success rate for retained or contingency searches. What retained search does offer is dedicated recruiter focus, priority candidate outreach, and clear accountability throughout the process. Those factors matter most on hard-to-fill roles such as wastewater superintendents, heavy civil project managers, and data center construction leads. Contingency recruiting can work well for more straightforward openings, but retained engagements give both sides a structured commitment from day one. Amundson Group is a veteran-owned, Inc. 5000 honoree (2024 and 2025) with 1,200+ construction placements and 90,000+ construction professionals in our network.
