Keep your nuclear projects staffed and on schedule

 

Protect your delivery timelines by proactively finding the right engineers. Not waiting for them to find you.

When staffing stalls, delivery takes the hit

Nuclear hiring is uniquely specialized, and the candidates you need often are not actively applying. The gap shows up when you need niche experience fast and inbound volume is light.

 

That’s where AEG comes in. We do the outbound work needed to reach the right engineers, engage them, and deliver a short list you can actually move on.

We proactively reach the talent pool you actually need, including passive engineers who are not applying.

 

Step 3: Short list and coordination

You get a focused slate of engaged candidates that meet your specific requirements.

 

Step 4: Ramp and ongoing support

We stay involved through onboarding and ramp, and we can adjust staffing as project scope changes.

Why AEG

We know nuclear.

We know nuclear hiring, so we get to the right requirements fast. That means less back and forth and better fits from the start.

Higher quality candidates.

We won’t send resumes just to hit a number. You get a short list of people who can actually step into the role, so you don’t waste time interviewing bad fits.

Built on relationships.

We take the time to learn how your team works and what success looks like. Over time we become an extension of your business, not just a vendor.

Time-to-fill

Candidate retention

Higher candidate response rate
