Goldbeck Recruiting’s Strategic Placement for Metro Testing’s PM Estimator Role

The need for a replacement arose when the previous individual in the role, though junior, left the company. Metro Testing took this opportunity to seek a more senior candidate with specific expertise in concrete restoration, a niche area that posed a significant challenge in the recruitment process. The search focused on finding someone with project management and estimation experience, familiar with British Columbia codes, and well-versed in the complexities of concrete restoration projects.

Given the specialized nature of concrete restoration and the limited pool of candidates with relevant experience, Senior Recruiter Alessia Pagliaroli’s recruitment strategy involved extensive outreach and engagement. The initial search spanned Metro Testing’s Western Canadian footprint, with considerations to potentially broaden the search further. Pagliaroli acknowledged the difficulty in finding candidates explicitly mentioning concrete restoration on their resumes, necessitating proactive engagement and in-depth discussions with potential candidates.

The approach to attract candidates revolved around highlighting the company culture, emphasizing the potential for personal and professional growth in a smaller organization. Despite not being the highest paying company, Metro Testing offered a supportive environment where employees could make a significant impact. The appeal lay in being a valued contributor within a flatter organizational structure.

Goldbeck Recruiting’s success in placing a Project Manager and Estimator for Metro Testing showcased the team’s ability to navigate challenges in a specialized recruitment process.
