Keywords For Restoration Candidate Searches

SEO positive red arrow in the design of the information related to the Internet and web sites

This blog is for candidates and contractors, alike!

Candidates… if you’re looking to get noticed and get hits on your resume, these keywords are for you!

Contractors… if you’re hiring for your restoration company, using these keywords while you search for candidates can cut your search time down considerably!

When our recruiters sit down to search for candidates, we suggest they start with some basic search terms that are “buzzwords” in the restoration industry, then get more broad from there. There are, of course, dozens of words and combinations you can plug into job and resume portals. For candidates, working these terms into your resume should mean your resume gets “found” faster, and you can get a leg-up on the competition by showing you know and use proper industry terminology

We’ll break this down by job title.
