I’ve written before about how run down the house that I lived in during college was. It was in constant need of maintenance, which mostly consisted of quick fixes that would break within a week. The giant ball of mold that started growing out of the ceiling received a little more attention, but not much. The guys who did maintenance on our house were always nice (even if the landlord was a total jerk), but it made me a bit uneasy knowing that they had a key to my place – if you know what I mean. Since my roommates and I weren’t paying for the “maintenance,” we didn’t have any say in who was working in our house. If we did, we would have used a service like ReliableRemodeler.com, which connects quality contractors with homeowners.
ReliableRemodeler.com has “matched remodeling contractors to over 700,000 home improvement projects.” They’re located in Beaverton, Oregon and have a staff of over 70 people. Those 70 people must be doing a pretty good job since ReliableRemodeler.com was named by Inc. Magazine as the country’s 187th fastest growing private company with 1,109.7% 3-year growth to $6.8 million in revenue. ReliableRemodeler.com is in the construction business, and although they don’t actually do the construction, they need to know the business. Matching a contractor with a homeowner can be tough, as many factors go into the decision of whom to hire (here’s how it works). The company makes its money by charging contractors a monthly fee to be included on their site after going through a screening process. ReliableRemodeler.com also needs to know the Internet, because most of their business is done online. This makes for an interesting combination that should provide some exciting entry-level opportunities.
ReliableRemodler.com’s Jobs page is a bit sparse, and it fails to identify which of their jobs are geared towards new college grads. 3 positions are listed, all of which seem like real possibilities for entry-level candidates. Here they are with the descriptions from the site.
Affiliate Manager – Seeking an online marketing professional to recruit new partners and manage the day-to-day activities of our expanding affiliate program. In addition to recruiting and managing partners, this individual will participate in program development, and training.
Project Advisors – are responsible for answering incoming calls regarding remodeling jobs, making homeowner follow-up calls, performing windows-based data entry, and handling various customer service inquiries.
Area Managers – are the liaison between ReliableRemodeler.com and the member contractors. This position acts as the primary contact for all member contractors; responsibilities include approving new member contractors, matching contractors with remodeling jobs, and managing accounts receivables. Most importantly Area Managers are responsible for meeting sales goals on a weekly/monthly basis.
That’s all the information that ReliableRemodeler.com offers about careers. They invite interested applicants to send a cover letter and resume to rrjobs@reliableremodeler.com. We’d love to see them do a better job with their online recruiting presence. They look like a fantastic place for a young person to work, but it’s hard to find enough information to make you want to take the effort to apply.
