About Us

Rockstar Recruiting started in 2018 over a breakfast meeting between two recruiters, introduced through a mother-in-law. By the time the eggs arrived, it was clear they both shared a passion for recruiting, had similar beliefs as to how the job should be done, and most importantly, each had a problem that the other could solve.

Mark was an Executive and Sales Recruiter focused on roles in the industrial and construction industries. He had built up a very strong reputation through his years in the business, particularly through his company Venters Recruits. He has always looked at recruiting as a way to help his clients grow their business. His client’s problems became his problems, and as a true DIY-er, he set out to find a solution. However, there was a simple problem that was getting worse: access to skilled tradespeople were increasingly hard to find. Mark’s clients would routinely say that the biggest thing preventing them from growing was an inability to find good trades people, particularly mechanics and HVAC technicians.

Enter Dave, a Skilled Trades Recruiter who had spent over a decade recruiting mechanics and millwrights. He had been working with the same recruiting firm since the day he graduated and things there had deteriorated. He did not agree with the direction the business was headed, and for the first time in his career, he was open to change.

Dave could solve Mark’s problem of finding skilled tradespeople. Mark could solve Dave’s problem by providing a recruiting firm dedicated to getting the job done the right way. Their mission was simple: provide clients with in-depth recruiting solutions (no post and pray strategies) and conduct themselves with high ethics (no robbing Peter to pay Paul).

Rockstar Recruiting was started soon after that initial breakfast meeting, and took off faster than either men thought possible. They started with a focus on mechanics, and they were fortunate to have Jacquie join the team a year later to start an HVAC division. The company has continued to grow: millwrights and fire protection recruiting were added to with dedicated recruiters on each team. Through the company’s growth, the team has remained true to their goals of doing the job the right way.
