I got a call from these guys about a month ago at my work with a job opportunity. That call came at exactly the right time since Id been wanting to quit for a few weeks. I obviously couldnt take the call then and there, but I gave them my personal number and had them call me the next day outside of work hours. Not sure if calling people at work is their MO (also not sure if that helps or hurts their success rate I guess if youre getting lots of people like me it would probably help it). Anyways, long story short Im a thousand times happier at the job I have now and I still cant

This is the most unprofessional recruiting company I have come across in my entire career! They will call people at the CURRENT place of employment trying to fish for candidates. Do note, the people Russ Hadick is contacting has NEVER had any prior communication with them. This firm is finding employee's work emails and work phone numbers from some database and then proceeding to contact them. One of our employees asked one of their headhunters to not contact her anymore and then he sends an email! I understand recruiting is hard right now but this type of behavior is unprofessional and unacceptable

I have had the privilege of working with Brandon Hamilton as an employer needing multiple Superintendents and Project Managers and as a candidate Sr Project Executive seeking to make a location change. Ive used more than a few recruiters over the past 35 years and as they say results can vary. The quality of the candidates Brandon presented was very good and he had briefed them well. I encourage anyone looking at Construction Staffing needs to give them a shot.

I have worked here for a year, the income potential is great- I have earned more than ever here in my first year because of the hard work I've put in, coached by the owner and president. Bob and Bryan believe in making people successful- as long as they have the drive and ethic to succeed. There were no surprises over the course of the year- and even in the midst of a pandemic I have learned and earned a new career. Great place to be for people that want to be rewarded for their effort. High Stress- High Risk- Very High Reward.
