Recruitment that Prioritizes You

Stop Hoping. Start Hiring

Reengineering Recruitment

At AQRA International, we are not just (contingent) recruiters, we are strategic hiring partners for Civil Engineering Firms across the United States. In an industry where top talent is scarce, competition is fierce, and hiring the right engineers can make or break a project, our commitment-based recruitment model ensures that your roles get the attention, expertise, and priority they deserve.

Unlike volume-driven contingent agencies that spread their efforts across hundreds of jobs, we work the job, not the candidate, meaning we focus exclusively on filling your critical hires with the best professionals in the industry.

Hire Civil Engineers. Civil Engineering Recruitment

Full Commitment to Your Hire

In a highly competitive hiring market, great engineers aren’t applying to job boards or responding to mass outreach. They need to be identified, engaged, and strategically recruited. When you partner with AQRA on a retained search, your role is our priority—not just another job on a long list.

With dedicated time, deep research, and proactive headhunting, we ensure every search is thorough, targeted, and successful.

✔ We don’t juggle hundreds of roles—we focus on yours.
✔ We don’t gamble on candidate volume—we find the right fit.
✔ We don’t wait for talent to come to you—we go out and secure it.

The result? Faster placements, higher-quality hires, and stronger retention.
