An electrical contractor with several different hiring needs
Petri Electric serves the Dallas-Fort Worth market from Richardson, Texas, with commercial and industrial electrical construction and service. Its recruiting needs extend beyond a single technician search to field leadership and project-management roles.
In the July 2026 account review, Yellowstone Local and Petri looked at both the cumulative results and the relevance of candidates reaching hiring managers. The goal for the next phase was to make the pipeline more useful to the people making hiring decisions.
A recruiting system that could be refined with feedback
Yellowstone Local supported job pipelines, candidate qualification and hiring-manager coordination. The review included electrical superintendent hiring, where the team reported eight qualified candidates and two hires.
The next step was more precise alignment: clarify role requirements with the hiring managers, collect useful reasons for candidate rejection and keep a shortlist ready for future openings. The partners also reviewed reporting access so Petri could inspect its recruiting activity directly.
The result, and the work beyond the number
By July 1, the account showed 93 hires at a reported cost below $1,000 per hire. That is the measurable result of this snapshot.
Cost efficiency was one part of the discussion. Petri also wanted closer engagement and stronger agreement on candidate fit. The account review set up direct hiring-manager conversations to address that next priority. A productive recruiting partnership needs both measurable hiring activity and a clear understanding of the next person the business needs.
About these figures
The July 1, 2026 client account review reported 93 hires and cost per hire below $1,000. These are account-level historical figures, rather than results from a single campaign. The review did not provide an independently normalized cost breakdown.
