Application Questions

<p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You start the day with a live board of open field seats: equipment operators, pipe layers, and laborers. Inbound applications are stacking up. People already in the applicant tracking system are waiting on a callback. Your job is to work the phone, run the screens, and put qualified people in front of hiring managers before the crews feel the gap.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Some days you walk an active dirt site in boots and PPE, check in with the superintendent, and learn the difference between a finish dozer operator and a rough grade operator. Then you drive back, open the applicant tracking system, and keep the pipeline moving.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">If that sounds like your kind of work, keep reading.</p><h2 style="margin: 20px 0px 8px;">Why Work With Us</h2><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Southeastern Site Development is a construction company.

No requisition waits on an empty candidate list, and hiring managers always have people to look at.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You hit the company's time-to-fill standard, and the volume and quality of candidates match what the crews need.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You reply to every applicant the day the application comes in. Nobody sits waiting, and nobody goes cold because a callback was slow.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You keep active candidates engaged through screening and interviews. Interviews get scheduled, confirmed, and reset when a date slips, so nobody falls out of the process over a calendar problem.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You only send proven candidates to the hiring manager. People clear the two-part assessment and a short phone screen, and only those who meet the good hire score threshold move forward.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You earn credibility with superintendents. When they respect what you know, they send referrals your way and trust the candidates you put in front of them.</p><h2 style="margin: 20px 0px 8px;">What You'll Be Responsible For</h2><h3>Keep Open Field Seats Filled</h3><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You work a live board of openings for operators, pipe layers, and laborers. Every inbound application gets worked, and candidates already on file from past openings get a second look before you ever go looking for new names.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Once the inbound work is handled, you reach out to trade schools and local community groups to keep names coming in. The goal is simple: no opening sits with an empty list.</p><h3>Reply the Same Day, Every Day</h3><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">When someone applies, they hear back the day it comes in. Follow-up on active candidates happens inside a day so people stay engaged.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You schedule interviews, confirm them, and reset them when a date slips.

Hiring managers spend their interview time on people worth interviewing.</p><h3>Learn the Work Well Enough That Superintendents Trust You</h3><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You walk active dirt sites when it helps the work. You check in with the superintendent on arrival, and you wear boots and PPE like anyone else on site.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">You learn the equipment and the trade specialties, because behavior and technical nuance decide who fits. A finish dozer operator and a rough grade operator are not the same hire, and you can tell the difference on a phone screen.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">If that sounds like the recruiting work you want to do, hit Apply.</p><h2 style="margin: 20px 0px 8px;">Qualifications</h2><ul><li>Two or more years of recruiting coordination or high-volume hiring experience, ideally in construction, skilled trades, manufacturing, or logistics.</li><li>Experience working inbound applications and re-engaging candidates already in an applicant tracking system.</li><li>Comfort running structured phone screens and reading candidates for both behavior and technical fit.</li><li>Proficiency in an applicant tracking system for logging candidates, sending assessments, scheduling interviews, and reporting pipeline status.</li><li>Experience scheduling, confirming, and rescheduling interviews across multiple hiring managers without losing candidates in the process.</li><li>Ability to learn heavy equipment categories and trade specialties well enough to hold a credible conversation with a superintendent.</li><li>Same-day responsiveness to applicants and candidates as a working standard, not a stretch goal.</li><li>Willingness to spend regular time on active construction sites in work boots and required personal protective equipment.</li><li>Valid driver's license and reliable transportation for local travel to active job sites.</li><li>On-site, local work only; this seat does not run remote.</li><li>High school diploma or equivalent required.</li></ul><h2 style="margin: 20px 0px 8px;">Compensation and Benefits</h2><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">$22.00 to $26.00 per hour depending on experience. </p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">Full benefits package available.</p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 12px;">If you want the number of people placed to be your scoreboard, and you want superintendents to trust the names you send, this is your seat.
