QUESTIONS HIRING TEAMS ASK

How many professionals will match our requirements?

The exact count depends on your specific search. A broader market view is not an exact count of people meeting every role, skill, license and experience requirement. Define the criteria in AECIQ to evaluate the resulting pool.

Can we search beyond people who are applying?

AECIQ focuses on the passive AEC talent market. A professional’s presence in a mapped pool does not mean they are actively applying, available or interested in a move. Use relevant outreach to establish interest.

Can we see the platform before scheduling?

Yes. Watch the four-minute self-guided walkthrough at your convenience. Then book a personalized demo to discuss your hiring criteria and geography.
