Non-negotiables
The goal is conversations, not applications. Indeed is a side dish; humans are dinner.

The process
Prioritize
Build at least 40 target employers: union hall, signatory contractors, non-union shops, solar, low-voltage, facilities, and GCs.
Contact
Find real people. Call offices, ask for hiring/field contacts, and use short emails or texts that ask for advice.
Convince
Run 15-minute conversations well: learn what they need, ask who else to talk to, follow up, and keep the pipeline moving.
