What ConstructionJobs.com does

ConstructionJobs.com is a vertical job board and resume database operated by Construction Jobs, Inc., a privately held corporation headquartered in Asheville, North Carolina, and founded in 2000. The platform connects job seekers with employers exclusively in the construction, design/build, and engineering industries, hosting 3,639+ active job listings, 169,270+ registered job seekers, and 16,453+ registered employer companies, with 215+ new jobs posted daily. Job seekers use the service free of charge to search jobs, build resumes, and receive email and text alerts; employers pay for postings and resume database access.

The core product is a web-based job board with integrated ATS job-wrapping capability that automatically captures listings from employer career sites or XML feeds, plus a searchable resume database, employer profile pages, banner advertising, eBlast email campaigns, and a Premium Employer Program with featured status and unlimited resume access. The platform supports social login via Google, Facebook, X, LinkedIn, and GitHub, and operates a network of vertical-specific sister sites (engineeringdesignjobs.com, buildingdesignjobs.com, toparchitectjobs.com, constructionprofessionals.com).

The business model is freemium and two-sided. Job seeker access is free and monetized through employer-side fees: one-time job posting credits ($325 single post up to $2,800 for a 12-pack of featured posts, with volume discounts of 15–40%), quarterly Job Pool subscriptions with interchangeable posting slots ($1,440–$2,300), recurring Premium Employer subscriptions, and Custom Unlimited annual plans sold sales-assisted. Go-to-market is primarily self-serve online with sales-assisted options for premium packages; distribution relies on content marketing via an industry blog, email and text job alerts, and targeted employer branding rather than broad advertising. The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding, no parent company, and no acquisitions.
