We are conducting research on how AI is (and isn’t) impacting skilled trades recruiting — specifically hiring electricians, welders, HVAC technicians, and other skilled professionals for large-scale construction and data center projects. We’re particularly interested in hearing from recruiters and HR leaders at staffing agencies specializing in skilled trades. We’d love insights on: Where do skilled trades candidates actually come from today? What’s the most broken part of the recruiting process right now? Where could AI realistically help? Where is AI just hype and not practical in this segment? How are data center and infrastructure projects changing hiring dynamics? Selected contributors may be featured in a research report distributed to 50,000+ industry leaders and decision-makers. If quoted, you will receive full approval of your quote before publication. Contributors will also receive early access to the findings. Please include: Your name Title Company Location Best email for follow-up We may follow up for a brief 10–15 minute conversation if needed.
