Do you struggle to find effective ways to drum up solid applications for the positions that you need to fill in your company?

In this session, we’ll talk about some specific strategies for keeping your applicant pipeline stocked all year round, and help you implement strategies now that can help you generate high quality applications for any role, quickly.

We’ll cover:

  • Some of the most effective ways to generate qualified apps in the trades industry, including:
    • An unorthodox way to use Facebook as a simple, but powerful networking tool

    • Good ol’ fashioned campus recruiting strategies that actually work
  • BONUS: You’ll get some proven templates to use right away so you can begin filling your pipeline with awesome interviewees

Presenter: Benji Carlson

As the son of two proven entrepreneurs, Benji’s spirit for self-starting business runs deep. Since he was a young teen, Benji has been starting and running profitable small businesses; most recently culminating in a highly successful 4-year career as a franchisee with College Pro Painters. Benji’s enormous heart and passion for people is what drove him to produce over $1,000,000 in revenue while taking the highest quality care of his employees and customers. He was consistently acknowledged for having the most productive staff in the company, while leading more junior franchisees to fulfill their potential. Benji’s uncanny ability to find the right people and put them in the right place make him a natural fit for Breakthrough Academy’s Assessment Team.
