Produce. Edit. Launch. All in one platform.

FillCrew is the first SaaS platform built specifically for trades recruitment — no marketing experience required. Target the right candidates, launch your campaign, and start filling positions. All in one place.

Job boards are where candidates go to die.

Your job postings compete with thousands of others. The best skilled trades workers — the ones you actually want — never see them. They're employed, busy, and not browsing Indeed at midnight. Meanwhile, you're paying per click for unqualified applications.

70% of skilled trades workers are passive candidates. They'd switch for the right opportunity, but they'll never find your job post.

Let's go find your next hire...

before they start looking.

We build your recruitment brand.

Our video team creates authentic, scroll-stopping content that shows what it's really like to work at your company. Real crews. Real jobsites. Real culture. Not stock photos and corporate jargon.

We target the right candidates.

AI-driven audience targeting puts your video campaigns in front of qualified trades professionals on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok — filtered by trade, experience level, location, and intent signals.

We deliver candidates ready to interview.

Automated follow-ups, pre-screening questions, and smart funnels mean the candidates who reach your inbox are qualified, interested, and expecting your call.

Built for the companies that build everything else.

Job boards reach the 30% of skilled trades workers actively looking.

We reach the other 70%.

NextRung is the recruitment marketing engine built for skilled trades companies. We create scroll-stopping video content, launch AI-targeted campaigns on the social platforms your future hires actually use, and deliver pre-qualified candidates to your inbox — before they ever open a job board. Our SaaS platform, FillCrew, lets you produce, edit, and launch recruitment campaigns in one place. We're not a staffing agency. We're not a job board. We're the reason your competitors keep hiring and you keep wondering where all the good techs went.

Why not a staffing agency or job board?

Staffing agencies charge 15-25% of annual salary, give you whoever's available, and disappear. NextRung builds a recruitment engine you own.

Job boards show your posting to the same candidates your competitors are already fighting over. We find the ones who aren't looking yet.

NextRung creates your recruitment content, runs your campaigns, automates your candidate pipeline, and delivers people who are pre-qualified and pre-sold on your company.

See What a Real Campaign Looks Like.

No paid actors. No stock footage.

Real companies, real crews, real results.

Your Company Has a Story Worth Telling.

Most trades companies just never tell it.

Here's what happens when they do.
