At Cannonball Recruiting, our direct placement services are built to remove the guesswork from hiring. We find and deliver long-term, culture-aligned professionals who not only meet the role requirements—but also strengthen your team from day one. With deep industry specialization in construction and manufacturing, we understand what makes a placement stick. Our process is proactive, fast, and laser-focused on fit—so you're not cycling through resumes or re-hiring for the same position twice. From key technical roles to leadership-level hires, we take care of sourcing, screening, and presenting only the best. When you're hiring for impact, not just to fill a seat, direct placement is the move—and Cannonball is your partner.
When you're hiring for permanent roles in critical operations, you can’t afford turnover. Our direct hire recruiting process connects you with candidates who are in it for the long haul—from skilled trades to management-level professionals. We screen not just for qualifications, but for alignment with your team, values, and growth trajectory. Every candidate is interviewed, reference-checked, and evaluated for long-term potential before they hit your desk. Whether it’s a shop supervisor, estimator, or mechanical lead, we help you build a workforce that lasts. Because real growth starts with real people.
Hiring internally eats up hours and distracts your best people from what they do best. Our direct placement services act as a full extension of your HR or operations team—from sourcing and screening to scheduling and follow-up. We handle every detail so you can stay focused on running your business. There’s no learning curve—we already know your industry, your roles, and your pain points. Whether you're a lean company or scaling fast, we’ll get you a fully vetted hire without the overhead. Let us handle the hunt—you focus on the hire.
We don’t believe fast has to mean sloppy. Our direct placement recruiting process is designed for speed and precision—so you don’t have to choose. By leveraging pre-vetted pipelines, industry referrals, and hands-on screening, we reduce your time-to-hire dramatically. Most clients receive top candidates in just a few business days, not weeks. And because we do the legwork up front, final interviews are sharper, smoother, and more decisive. Fast hires should still be the right hires. With us, they are.
We understand that every business has different budget needs, so our direct placement pricing is flexible, transparent, and aligned with performance. Whether you prefer a flat fee, a percentage-based model, or milestone-triggered payments, we’ll build a pricing structure that works for you. No bloated retainers. No hidden fees. Just straightforward recruiting that delivers results and ROI. For critical roles, we also offer replacement guarantees—so you hire with confidence. Our job’s not done until your team is stronger.
Some roles are hard to fill—and that’s exactly where we shine. Whether you need a CNC programming expert, an electrical estimator, or a site superintendent with specific project experience, our niche recruiting capabilities run deep. We source passive candidates, not just active job seekers, and we know how to pitch your role in a way that attracts top talent. Our recruiters understand technical qualifications, compliance standards, and the soft skills needed for leadership success. When internal postings and job boards fall short, we go where the talent really lives. No job too specialized. No need too complex.
