# What will AGI do for Skilled Trade Recruitment?

## Overview

Contractor businesses and construction firms face a critical shortage of qualified tradespeople, from master electricians to journeyman HVAC technicians. As older generations retire, companies struggle to fill specialized roles because traditional recruitment channels fail to reach or accurately represent the remaining talent pool.

Standard job boards and text-based resumes are designed for knowledge work and do not capture hands-on proficiency. Hiring managers cannot verify a candidate's spatial reasoning, code compliance knowledge, or tool mastery until they are on a physical job site, leading to expensive mis-hires and project delays.

Local union halls and word-of-mouth networks remain the primary sourcing methods, creating severe geographic bottlenecks. Without standardized, scalable ways to validate trade certifications and practical skills digitally, recruitment remains localized, slow, and highly manual.
