They provided guidance during my career transition and helped coach me to make the right choice in terms of job title. They found me a multifamily general contractor that promoted me from Assistant Project Manager to Project Manager within 6 months. **I couldn’t be happier in my new role** and would only work with the Amundson Group if I ever need a recruiter in the future. I spoke to a couple other recruiters during the same time period and it was clear that those other companies were just trying to fill a role and not find the best fit for me and my career. 10/10″ **Adam Phillipi** Placed Candidate “Amundson Group reached out to me based off of my online resume. They had several options for employment that fit my skill set before they ever called me. The thing that set them apart was they spent time to ask ME what I wanted to do, where I wanted to go, and what was most important to me. I feel as though they truly took that into account when setting me up with interviews and possible employees. I have **been with my current employer for the past 8 months and it is everything I was looking for**. I have Amundson Group to thank for that. They called and walked me through every step of the interview process and even checked up on me a few times after I got the job to make sure my transition was seamless. **5 Star company**“ Steffen Gipson Placed Candidate l had the pleasure of working with The Amundson Group during a recent career move, and **I can’t say enough about the positive experience**. From the very first conversation, Alex Penry made the process smooth and collaborative, always keeping me informed, helping me prepare for interviews, and offering great insight along the way. I also want to extend a sincere thank you to Sarah Otis, whose efforts behind the scenes were instrumental in **opening the right doors at just the right time.** Thanks to their hard work, **I landed in a professional role that excites me more than I could have imagined**. If you’re ever considering a new opportunity and The Amundson Group reaches out, take the call. They’re not your average recruiters. They’re the kind of team that truly advocates for your success.

Every search is run by a specialist who places that exact role in that exact market weekly. Our sourcing combines an active database of pre vetted candidates we have worked with since 2020, real time outreach to passive candidates the recruiter already knows by name, and a structured intake call with the hiring manager that maps the role precisely. The combination is how we hit a qualified shortlist inside 7 days for senior construction roles in the Sun Belt. ### What does it actually cost to engage Amundson Group? Contingent placement fees in 2026 run 20 to 25% of first year base salary across most construction roles. Retained search runs 25 to 33% billed in three installments. Volume agreements and direct hire programs are structured separately and typically come in below contingent for clients with consistent hiring volume. Full fee structure and the 90 day replacement guarantee are documented in writing before any search begins. ### How long does a typical senior construction search take? For a senior Project Manager, Superintendent, Estimator, or Foreman in the Sun Belt, a qualified shortlist lands in 7 days. Full search from intake to signed offer typically runs 30 to 45 days. Executive or relocation required searches can run longer. If your search has been open more than 60 days the issue is almost always comp band, not candidate supply. ### What sectors and metros do you cover? We place across heavy civil, site development, paving, data center, rail, tunnels, wastewater, and underground utilities in the United States. Our metro depth is strongest across the Sun Belt including Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh, Nashville, Phoenix, Denver, Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, and the rest of Texas, Georgia, the Carolinas, Florida, Tennessee, Arizona, and Colorado. ### What guarantees do you offer on a placement? Every placement carries a 90 day replacement guarantee. If a placed candidate leaves or is terminated within the first 90 days for performance reasons, we run the replacement search at no additional fee. Beyond the formal guarantee, we run 30, 60, and 90 day check ins on every placement so issues surface early enough to fix. ### What makes Amundson Group different from a generalist agency? We work construction exclusively. Every recruiter on our team places the same handful of role types weekly, so our candidate networks, comp benchmarks, and market intelligence compound. A generalist firm placing a Project Manager today and an accountant tomorrow cannot match that depth. The result is a faster shortlist, a tighter comp band, and a higher placement retention rate. ## Related reading - [The 2026 Construction Compensation Report preview](https://amundsongroup.com/compensation-report-preview/) - [Inside our 7 day intake process](https://amundsongroup.com/7-day-intake-process-shortlist-pm-one-week/) - [How we vet a Superintendent in 45 minutes](https://amundsongroup.com/?p=50135) - [Best construction recruiters in 2026](https://amundsongroup.com/best-construction-recruiters-2026-how-to-choose/) - [Meet the Amundson Group team](https://amundsongroup.com/meet-the-team/) --- About Amundson Group: a Houston-headquartered construction recruiting firm placing superintendents, project managers, estimators, foremen and skilled trades with contractors across the United States in heavy civil, site development, paving, data center, rail, tunnels, wastewater and underground utilities. 1,200+ construction placements to date, a network of 90,000+ construction professionals, 250+ companies served, the first qualified resume in about 7 hours and a shortlist in 7 days.
