Cornerstone Flooring Co is a US-based construction business specialising in flooring solutions across multiple locations.
They hire for a broad range of operational and commercial roles, including Project Managers, Estimators, Sales roles, Warehouse staff and other construction-related positions where reliability, hands-on experience and role-specific skills matter.
Before working with ecruit, hiring felt too reactive, expensive and time-consuming.
Cornerstone were dealing with:
Hundreds of resumes, but only a handful of viable candidates
Too much time spent in unproductive interviews
Limited candidate reach due to budget restrictions
Over-reliance on a single job board
No practical way to target candidates aligned to specific roles
Traditional headhunting fees of around 20% of first-year salary
As Manning put it:
“It seemed like every role was impossible to fill.”
Cornerstone needed a better way to attract, filter and manage suitable candidates without paying agency-level fees.
ecruit helped by providing:
Multi-board job advertising within budget
A more structured way to manage applications
Headhunting support without commission-based fees
A simpler hiring workflow with less internal legwork
The objective was simple:
Reduce the time wasted sifting through unsuitable resumes and make it easier to find candidates worth interviewing.
Since partnering with ecruit, Cornerstone Flooring Co has filled 25+ roles across the business.
For one recent role:
22 relevant applications were received
4 candidates interviewed
1 successful hire
The biggest shift was candidate quality.
Instead of spending hours sorting through poor-fit applicants, Cornerstone could focus on stronger candidates and make faster, more confident hiring decisions.
ecruit initially stood out because of the price point.
But the ongoing value came from the service, support and results.
“I feel like they are a special find. A small business who has a great thing going. They can offer what other headhunters can’t, at a fraction of the cost.”
Cornerstone highlighted:
Quality of service
Transparent price per hire
Access to special discounts
Direct owner involvement
