How our pages are made
At Skilled Trades Headhunters, this is what we do all day: recruit skilled trades professionals.
What we research, what we template, what a person reviews, and how to tell us when we got something wrong.

Who writes this site?
Skilled Trades Headhunters is a contingency recruiting firm for skilled trades. The pages are written by our team for employers who are hiring tradespeople and for tradespeople thinking about a move. We are a recruiter, not a news outlet or a licensing body, and our pages say so where it matters.
What do you research for each page?
Trade pages and hiring guides start from the work itself: what the person does on a typical day, what tools and equipment they use, what licenses or certifications the work can require, and what hiring mistakes we see. Where a rule comes from a government source, we link the official page rather than paraphrasing a secondhand summary.
We do not publish testimonials, placement counts, client names or invented statistics.
Where does your salary data come from?
Pay figures come from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics program, mapped to trade titles as described on our salary methodology page. Each salary page shows the retrieval date of the data. Where BLS publishes no figure for an occupation or area, we do not publish an estimate.
Why do some pages share text?
Many pages share a layout and some shared blocks, such as the fee explanation, the Six-Step Search and the replacement guarantee. That shared text is the same on purpose because the terms are the same. Page-specific sections, facts and questions are written for that page. Pages that do not yet have enough page-specific content are kept out of search results until they do.
Does a person review the pages?
A member of our team reviews new editorial pages, hiring guides and comparison pages before they are released for search. Pages generated from data and templates, such as salary pages, are checked by sampling and automated build checks, not one by one. We do not claim that a person has read every page on the site.
What do the dates on your pages mean?
Pages show the date their content or data last changed. We update that date only when the content or data actually changes, not when a page is rebuilt.
What will you never publish?
We do not publish client names, testimonials, star ratings, placement counts or success rates. We do not publish timing promises, because how long a search takes depends on the trade, the market and the employer. We do not name the employers whose crews we recruit from. When a page discusses another recruiting model or firm, we stick to what is public and avoid judging quality.
Which sources do you rely on?
For hiring rules, safety and training, we link primary sources: the Bureau of Labor Statistics, OSHA, the Department of Labor and Apprenticeship.gov, state licensing boards, and standards bodies where a standard is cited by name. We avoid secondhand blog summaries. When a rule differs by state, we say so instead of picking one state's rule and presenting it as national.
Source links can break or move. If a link on our site no longer points to the page we described, treat that as an error and tell us.
Do you use AI tools to write pages?
We use software, including AI writing tools, to help draft and check pages, run consistency checks and catch banned phrasing, repeated sentences and missing sources. A tool draft is a starting point. Editorial pages, hiring guides and comparison pages are edited and reviewed by our team before release. Data pages are built from source data by code, and the code is checked, not every output page.
What happens when you correct a page?
When we correct a factual error, we fix the page and update its date. If the error affected a pay figure, a license rule or a safety statement, we also check other pages that use the same source or template. We do not quietly change what a page says about our fees or guarantee; those terms change only when the agreement changes.

How do I report an error?
If you see something wrong, such as an outdated license rule, a broken source link or a pay figure that does not match BLS, call +13053064829 or use the contact page and include the page address. We check the report against the source and correct the page if it is wrong.
What else do buyers ask?
Does a person review every page?
No. A person reviews editorial pages, guides and comparison pages before release. Data and template pages are checked by sampling and automated checks.
Where do your salary numbers come from?
The Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics program. Each salary page shows when the data was retrieved, and pages with no BLS figure are not published.
Are your pages legal advice?
No. Licensing, safety and employment rules come from the agencies we link. Check the current rule with the agency before acting on it.
Do you accept paid placements or sponsored content?
No. We do not sell links, mentions or rankings on this site.
How fast do you fix reported errors?
We check every report against the source. We do not promise a turnaround, but a confirmed error is corrected and the page date is updated.
