Qualified Hires builds complete hiring funnels for home-service companies — the ad, the automated screening, the interview pipeline, the posting distribution. Owners come to us when they're done paying monthly for software they still have to run themselves.

Our guarantee

3 qualified candidates in 30 days or you don't pay.

CareerPlug is applicant-tracking software: you subscribe, and you get tools — templates, a careers page, pipelines. If you have someone on staff to write the ads, tune the screening questions, and chase applicants every day, software plus labor can work. Most owner-operated companies don't have that person. The owner is the recruiting department, at 9pm, from the couch. That's the gap we built for. Instead of renting tools, you buy the finished machine once: we write the job ad for your trade and your market, wire up text-message screening that answers applicants in minutes (with proper consent language — SMS recruiting has real compliance rules), set up the interview calendar and scorecards, and distribute the posting where your candidates actually look. Then we hand you the keys. No monthly fee. No per-hire percentage. Your applicant data is yours. The difference in one sentence: hiring software is a gym membership; we build you the finished house. And because "trust us" isn't a guarantee: if the funnel doesn't put three qualified candidates in front of you in your first 30 days, you don't pay. The terms go in writing before a dollar moves. If you'd rather own than rent, the 45-second application below books a 20-minute call where we map the exact funnel for your company.
