Our approach

Coordinate field data and project delivery

We discuss how candidates plan fieldwork, manage crews and equipment, process or review data, document findings, and coordinate with designers and construction teams. Employers can specify the software, methods, and work setting important to the role.

Our approach

We directly reach local surveying and geotechnical candidates, including professionals willing to travel 100%. Nationwide candidates willing to travel 100% can be considered for assignments requiring sustained field travel when expectations are clear.

Relocation and travel

Location is part of the search.

We look locally first and discuss whether relocation or travel makes sense. A traveling superintendent's rotation, a PM's family move and a local commute are different decisions. We cover relocation help, per diem and timing before you meet anyone, not at the offer.

Placement protection

Candidate replacement guarantee

How long is the candidate replacement guarantee?

We offer a candidate replacement guarantee on standard search agreements. The applicable period and exact terms are set out in the signed client recruiting agreement.

Eligibility, exclusions, notification requirements, payment requirements, and replacement terms are governed by the signed client recruiting agreement.
