Construction Combine

by The 100 Companies

The NFL Combine might be over now, but last week in Atlanta, the construction industry had a scouting competition of its own.

At the two-day Construction Education Foundation of Georgia (CEFGA) CareerExpo, New South Construction and over 300 other companies spoke to interested students and viewed SkillsUSA – a competition based on construction-related skills.

New South CFO Dan Smith told the AJC the firm tries to reach students, as the average age of skilled workers is increasing and the industry needs “new blood.” Though no formal hires were made, over 5,000 new construction workers may have been born.
