SkilledWire is a job board built for exactly one thing: hiring licensed electricians in California. Every applicant's license is verified against public CSLB records before you ever see them. $249 for a 30-day posting — no subscription, no auto-renewal, no junk applicants.
We're opening with 10 founding employers. Lock your rate for life.
The big job boards were built to sell you applicant volume. You need one licensed electrician. The mismatch is the whole problem.
Seventy resumes in, one person actually qualified. You're paying with your evenings to sort through helpers, career-changers, and ghosts who never pick up the phone.
Sponsored posts and promoted listings charge you per click — including the clicks from people who were never going to get hired. The meter runs; the truck stays empty.
Generalist boards don't check licenses. You do the credential detective work yourself — verifying CSLB status one applicant at a time, after you've already interviewed them.
One trade, one state, one promise: the applicants in your inbox are already worth your time.
Every applicant profile shows a license status checked against public CSLB records — with a timestamp of the check. No license, no application in your inbox. The credential detective work is done before you log in.
The minute your job posts, electricians whose licenses and location match get a text. Good candidates don't sit in an inbox for two weeks — they hear about your opening the same day, while they're still looking.
No onboarding calls. No account manager. Post your job and get back to work.
Write the job the way you'd describe it over the phone — trade, license level needed, location, pay range. Takes a few minutes. $249, live for 30 days.
Our matching engine texts licensed electricians near your job the minute it goes live. Your posting reaches the right people while they're still looking — not two weeks later.
Every applicant arrives with a verified CSLB license status and timestamp. You interview; you hire. We stay out of the way.
SkilledWire is brand new. We're launching with a small founding group — and the founding terms only exist once.
We're opening with 10 founding employers. That's the founding group — no fake counters, no "only 3 left" theater. When the 10 spots are taken, founding pricing is gone for good.
Not hiring this quarter? Get notified at launch — one email when we open, nothing else.
Not yet — we're in pre-launch. Founding employers claim their spot now, and their job postings go live first the moment we launch, running for a full 30 days. You pay $249 today; if plans change before your posting goes live, you get a full refund. We'd rather be upfront about where we are than pretend otherwise.
Before an applicant can reach your inbox, we check their stated license against the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) public records and record the result with a timestamp on their profile. That means: the license exists, it's tied to the person applying, and it's active as of the check date. It doesn't guarantee work quality — that's what interviews are for — but nobody unlicensed or expired makes it through.
California electricians who've registered on SkilledWire and opted in to job alerts — journeymen, apprentices, and master-level licensees matched to your location and license requirements. When you post, matched electricians get an SMS immediately, and the listing stays searchable on the site for 30 days.
Yes on both counts, honestly split: any time before your posting goes live, you can cancel for a full refund — no questions. Once your posting is live and electricians are being alerted, the $249 covers the 30-day posting and the SMS outreach we've already run, so it's non-refundable from that point. If you're worried, the founding rate is the cheapest our posting will ever be — you're risking nothing by claiming a spot early.
Because we're new, and we'd rather launch with ten employers we can take care of personally than a hundred we can't. Founding members get our direct attention, first postings at launch, and locked pricing. Once the ten spots are filled, the founding offer closes and standard pricing takes over.
No. One payment of $249 buys one 30-day posting. When the 30 days are up, the posting comes down and nothing is charged again. If you want to post again later, you buy another posting. That's the whole model.
Join the founding group: $249, 30 days, verified licenses, locked pricing for life. Ten spots. When they're gone, they're gone.
