How MGM General Contracting used Skillit to fill key roles and ensure they were staffed for a new project

MGM had a project that they needed some specialty craft workers to fill an important role to finish the project. Looking to hire a few acoustical ceiling workers, MGM turned to typical channels - such as job boards - and could not find the workers they were looking for despite trying to hire for the position for some time.

Under a crunch with a niche craft worker need, MGM turned to Skillit. They embraced the platform for their hiring needs and actually pushed through the onboarding cycle quickly. Once they completed onboarding, they started reaching out to candidates. From the time they signed with Skillit to their first hire was four days! They sent out 8 contact requests to qualified candidates and received 5 responses. From that pool, they managed to hire 3 workers before their first week with Skillit was finished.

This quick turnaround ensured that they had the talent they needed and the job would not be delayed. Skillit’s ability to acquire hard to source workers combined with the user-friendly AI-backed platform pushed MGM over the top by filling niche hiring needs.
