Speed depends on the recruiter's existing network in your trade and region. Amundson Group averages 7 hours from job intake to first qualified resume, drawing on a network of 90,000+ construction professionals and 1,200+ construction placements to date. The fastest searches start with a clear intake: role, must-have experience, project types and sizes, reporting line, pay range and interview availability for the week. Roles like chief estimator or general superintendent with 10-15 years of heavy civil experience take longer because long-tenured people do not move easily. Ask any recruiter how quickly you will see resumes, not just how quickly they will start.
