Foreman Hired in 30 Days, First Resume in 7 Hours

The Client's Challenge

A construction firm operating across the US needed to fill a foreman role quickly. Experienced foremen who could lead crews, maintain schedules, and uphold safety standards on active job sites are consistently among the hardest field positions to source. The client needed someone ready to step in and lead from day one — not someone who would require an extended ramp-up period.

Amundson Group's Search Process

Amundson Group engaged its network of 90,000+ construction professionals to surface candidates with verified field leadership experience. Key priorities in the search included:

• Demonstrated crew management and accountability on active job sites
• Familiarity with production targets, daily reporting, and safety compliance
• A track record of completing scopes on schedule and within budget
• The interpersonal profile to command respect while maintaining team cohesion

Leveraging a recruiting process that moves from job intake to first qualified resume in an average of 7 hours, the team moved quickly — presenting candidates who met the technical and cultural criteria the client had outlined.

The Outcome at 90+ Days

The placed professional has now been in the foreman role for over 90 days. By this point they have:

• Established credibility with the crews they oversee
• Demonstrated consistent adherence to project schedules and safety protocols
• Integrated into the client's operational culture and management expectations
• Proven capable of handling the day-to-day field leadership responsibilities the client originally outlined

The client reported satisfaction with the fit of the hire relative to both technical requirements and team dynamics.
