Energy hiring needs a new approach

Critical, entry level roles are getting harder to fill.

Utilities are competing for a limited pool of experienced technical talent, while retirements and growing workforce needs make critical roles harder to keep staffed

Qualified talent exists outside the traditional recruiting funnel.

People are already developing relevant technical skills in electrical systems, engineering and the trades, while others are earning industry credentials such as NERC certifications. But they don’t always enter the traditional recruiting funnel.

The next generation doesn’t know these careers exist.

Young people may recognize the company or industry without knowing about the skilled and technical careers available within it, or what it takes to get started.

Workforce outreach doesn’t always become workforce results.

Career fairs, school visits and partnerships create valuable exposure, but without consistent follow-up, promising talent can easily be lost after the first interaction.

How Dominion Energy doubled its qualified candidate pool.

The challenge

Dominion needed a stronger source of qualified candidates for a critical operator role that traditional recruiting struggled to fill.

The approach

GoPursue expanded the employer’s reach beyond its existing recruiting channels, connected the opportunity with relevant early-career talent and helped identify candidates with the potential to succeed.

The result: 2X the qualified candidate pool

11 qualified candidates, compared with 5 previously.

People + Process + Technology

Built for the realities of utility workforce development

Build on what’s already working.

Career fairs, internships, school relationships and community partnerships don’t need to be replaced. GoPursue helps turn those efforts into a more consistent source of candidates for the roles you need to fill.

Local talent matters.

For onsite technical roles, the strongest talent source is often close to the facility. GoPursue helps identify relevant local programs and the people already developing the skills you need.

Every location is different.

The available talent, training programs and workforce needs around one plant or service territory can look very different from another. Your approach should too.

Your team can’t be everywhere.

Researching talent sources, building relationships, following up after events and keeping candidates engaged takes time. GoPursue combines technology with hands-on support to keep the work moving.
