Better than Craigslist Better than indeed, or monster, or zip recruiter. These job boards are great if you’re the kind of person who feels like it’s necessary to have thousands of job postings rather than one great job. How can you know who the good companies are? The scammers and jerks…? As your personal agent, […]

I get this question often and I suppose it’s just a matter of understanding that you are not hired by Sqrft.

We promise to do our best to always do the right thing. We promise that your application with Squarefoot Tradesmen has a much greater chance of landing you the job you want, then if you applied to any single construction company on your own. We promise not to waste your time. Headhunters often get a […]
