01 · The problem
Trade hiring is broken
Schools don't know which employers need workers. Employers can't find students with the right certifications. Everyone's guessing. Meanwhile, 650,000 trade jobs go unfilled every year.
Students apply blind
Sending the same resume to 50 employers hoping someone bites. No signal on fit, no feedback loop.
Employers hire on hope
A resume says "welding experience." Does that mean MIG? TIG? Structural? They don't know until day one.
Schools can't prove ROI
Federal funding requires placement data. Most schools track it in spreadsheets — if they track it at all.
02 · How it works
From enrollment
to employment
Three phases. Zero guesswork. The workflow closes the gap between learning a trade and landing a job.
Build & track
Students upload a resume or complete a guided profile with school, program, experience, credentials, availability, and job preferences.
Connect & apply
Schools build direct relationships with verified employers. Students see relevant openings with clear reasons—skills, credentials, location, availability, and pay.
Hire & report
Employers follow clear candidate decisions from review to hire. Every placement writes the outcome data schools need for federal reporting — time to placement, starting wage, program ROI — automatically.
03 · Why TradeHired
The missing network between school and work
Trade schools should not have to beg staffing agencies to place graduates. TradeHired gives students ownership of their profile, schools a direct employer network, and employers a complete hiring workflow.

Founding cohort, now forming
We're onboarding the first trade schools and employers now. Founding partners run the full student-to-hire workflow free, shape the school and employer experience their region needs — and their mark goes on this sheet.
Reserved — founding partner marks
This zone stays empty until the proof is real. That's the point.
