Attracting, Hiring, and Retaining the Right Employees
Bloomfield Hills, MI (August 10, 2023) – Season 2, Episode 16 of the Building Michigan podcast, hosted by Kevin Koehler, president of the Construction Association of Michigan (CAM), features a conversation with Adam Cosola and Jason Epstein, co-owners of CTC Talent Partners, a recruiting and consulting firm based in Metro Detroit. The company specifically helps construction companies fill salaried positions from managerial through C-suite. The company’s mantra is “Helping Companies Attract, Hire, and Retain the Right Employees.”
Construction companies today face stiff competition for top talent. In order to find the right candidate pool and attract the right candidates, firms should consider updating their strategies. One way of doing this, according to Cosola and Epstein, is to look beyond just industry experience when sourcing candidates – employees can greatly benefit by considering those with transferable skills from adjacent fields who can learn on the job.
Developing a solid hiring process is also key, utilizing efficient video screening interviews and providing timely feedback. They also feel that it’s important to get multiple stakeholders involved to assess the right cultural fit.
Working with specialized recruiters, like CTC Talent Partners, can expand your talent pool and identify the right fits faster. With the right hiring strategies, you can build an engaged, high-performing team.
