Making An Impact: Successful AEC Hiring with Bryce Batts

  • Summary

  • Katie is back and talking to Bryce Batts, a seasoned recruiter and co-owner of Career Collective, to explore attracting and retaining top talent in the AEC industry. Bryce emphasizes the need for swift communication and efficient interview processes to capture high-caliber candidates' interest. She advises employers to collaborate closely with recruiters, timing offers strategically to avoid premature proposals that candidates might leverage for better opportunities. They also discuss the importance of making strong initial offers rather than attempting lowball negotiations, which can deter potential hires. Authentic job descriptions and genuine passion in the recruitment process are essential to attract the right talent.


    The discussion shifts to the competitive nature of the current job market, highlighting the importance of digital presence and effective employer branding. Embracing platforms like LinkedIn™ for outreach and showcasing company culture is crucial. Bryce advocates for proactive networking and personalized direct outreach over mere job postings. The conversation also underscores the benefits of offering flexible work schedules, generous PTO, and compelling employee perks to remain competitive without straining financial resources. Collaborative efforts between marketing, HR, and recruitment teams are vital for crafting impactful hiring strategies that resonate with prospective hires and align with the company's values and culture.
