About the Role
TESIM Electric is hiring a Bilingual (English/Spanish) Craft Recruiter to build and mobilize our field workforce. The data-center pipeline in Texas is enormous, and the constraint on winning more work isn't estimating — it's fielding the crews. This is that seat. You'll pipeline, screen, hire, and onboard Journeymen, Apprentices, and craft support at the pace the work requires.
What You'll Own
• Sourcing pipelines: apprenticeship programs, trade schools, industry referrals, LinkedIn, jobsite recruiting.
• Screening calls and jobsite interviews for craft candidates.
• Coordinating with foremen and superintendents on hiring needs and quality feedback.
• Onboarding logistics with HR: I-9s, E-Verify, safety training, tools, PPE.
• Retention: exit interviews, referrals, and continuous improvement of the craft experience.
Required Qualifications
• Fluent English AND Spanish (written and verbal). Bilingual is non-negotiable — most of our workforce is Spanish-speaking.
• 3+ years of recruiting experience, ideally in construction, trades, or field-services labor.
• Comfort with high-volume pipelines and ATS/HRIS systems.
• Reliable transportation for jobsite recruiting.
Preferred Experience
• Prior craft recruiting for electrical, mechanical, or general construction subs.
• Experience with union and non-union sourcing.
• Existing network among Texas apprenticeship programs and trade schools.
Compensation
$32–$52/hr DOE. Health, dental, vision. Paid holidays. Referral bonuses on the hires you place.
