Why site engineer hires go wrong
Most unsuccessful hires come down to a mismatch between what the role needs and what the person has done before — not a lack of qualifications.
A practical checklist
- Relevant project types and values they have worked on
- Hands-on setting-out and levelling experience
- Familiarity with drawings, RFIs, quality records and temporary works
- Required tickets and site safety training
- Availability, notice period and commute to your site
- References from site managers or project engineers they reported to
Use a technical conversation
A short technical discussion or site walk with your project engineer often reveals more than a formal interview. Ask how they would approach a real problem from your current job.
