Building Construction Connections

At the National Technical Honor Society (NTHS), we are proud to celebrate and empower students in Career & Technical Education (CTE). NTHS members have committed themselves to excellence in their chosen CTE field, and we want to ensure that these outstanding students can find opportunities to connect their skill sets with a career they will love. CareerStarter is an incredible tool that helps us move our mission forward. It empowers our members interested in the construction industry to learn the variety of occupations and paths available to them, find those that align with their interests, and, most importantly, connect with employers to jumpstart their careers. Integrating CareerStarter into our member portal was a simple process that gave our members one-click access to create their CareerStarter profile and take their next step toward employment. We are honored to partner with BYF and NCCER to help build life-changing opportunities for NTHS members and CTE students interested in construction nationwide.”

I was absolutely blown away by your new CareerStarter platform—really haven’t seen anything as good as this as far as workforce development platforms go!”

One of CareerStarter‘s standout features is the ability for students to showcase their skills and certificates on their accounts, making it easier to present their qualifications. They can also explore job opportunities locally or in other states, offering them a broader scope of possibilities. Many students appreciate the career path insights offered by CareerStarter, which help them understand various trades and industries. The platform’s seamless integration into our training, including NCCER Connect and soft-skills training, ensures that students are comfortable using it. Contractors should consider joining the platform to access a pool of certified individuals actively seeking job opportunities. It serves as a centralized hub for connecting with potential employees.”

CareerStarter is a great tool for employers, schools, and students to stay connected and a wonderful resource for those that are new to the construction industry looking for entry-level positions!”

CareerStarter has been a great tool for us beginning with its ease of use, both for old analog instructors like myself and the tech-native youth in our program. It was easy to set up the Foundation’s profile and to send out invitations for youth and partners to join…the ability to earn badges is a motivating factor for youth to continue going back to the site unprompted and CareerStarter’s features allow students to personalize their profile as a journey in learning and exploration.”

CareerStarter is an invaluable platform because it’s a true one-stop shop for job seekers, educators and employers in the construction industry. There’s simply nothing else like it. Students can build their resumes, highlight their experience and easily search for construction job opportunities—all in one place. It streamlines the entire process and connects the right people, making it a game changer for anyone looking to build a career in construction.“

I found my experience with CareerStarter to be extremely productive. The website is very informative and resourceful, and has helped me a great deal in the time that I’ve spent using it. I would definitely recommend CareerStarter to anyone entering the industry.”

What I like about being on CareerStarter is the sense of new opportunities and growth. It’s a time to learn, explore your potential, and build a foundation for your future. The excitement of discovering your strengths, setting goals, and gaining experience can be both fulfilling and motivating as you begin your professional journey. It’s also an opportunity to create connections and shape your unique path.”

It’s an insightful and resourceful app for people in need of a career. It’s easy to navigate, and I’m appreciative for the helpful way.”

CareerStarter has been a life changing opportunity for me to be a better man for my family. My experience has been great. I’ve been learning new information about things I thought I knew but weren’t politically correct. It’s a great opportunity for people like me that wouldn’t be able to afford the training. I’m grateful to CareerStarter for helping me become a better version of myself.”

It’s user-friendly and has a good user interface.”
