Denver contractors can't find techs.
We find them, talk to every one of them, and verify their licenses against Colorado state records before a contractor ever sees a name.

If you work in the trades
We're not a job board and we're not going to bury you in applications. We talk to you directly — by text, so you're not stuck on a call between service stops.
We ask what you're making, what number would actually move you, and how far you're willing to drive. Then we only put you forward where it's a real fit.
- Your name and current employer stay confidential until you tell us otherwise
- No resume black hole. A real person read it, and that person is the owner
- Denver metro shops hiring now — not listings that went stale in March
Not a fee, not a cut of your wage, not now and not ever. Contractors pay us. You don't. That's the whole arrangement.
If you hire techs
You already know the market — you're living it. An empty service truck isn't a staffing problem, it's roughly seventeen thousand dollars a month of revenue you aren't billing.
Every week we publish who's available across the Front Range. First Look subscribers see every tech 72 hours before that list goes public.
- Unlimited hires. No placement fees, no percentage of salary
- Every candidate phone-screened — pay expectations, commute range and availability confirmed before you see them
- Licenses verified against Colorado DORA state records
- Fewer than four interview-ready candidates in a month? That month is free
For comparison: a contingency recruiter charges 15–30% of first-year salary — about $15,000 for a single technician on a $75,000 wage.
How it actually works
Continuously, across the Front Range — not only when you have a req open.
A structured screen covering licences, experience, pay expectation, commute range and start date. No exceptions.
Checked against Colorado's public DORA licensing records. If it doesn't check out, they don't go on the list.
72 hours before anyone else. You interview. You decide. You hire as many as you want.
Who runs this
Jacob Hervey. Denver. I answer my own messages — there's no call centre and no offshore team reading from a script.
If you're a tradesperson on our list, I've spoken to you myself. If you're a contractor, you'll be dealing with me and not an account manager who rotates out every quarter.
