Who we areThe network for builders

Founded by a builder
Skillit is shifting the conversation from workforce scarcity to talent access.
I was a skilled carpenter the industry desperately needed. I struggled to find consistent work because there was no system that knew what I could do and connected me to the employers who needed those skills. There are millions of workers in exactly that position today. That’s what Skillit fixes.

We believe Skillit is building one of the most important companies of this generation.
