Your resume isn't telling your story. Let's fix that.
Hiring managers spend 6 seconds scanning resumes. If yours doesn't communicate your value instantly, you're out. Jade Thompson, Talent Acquisition Manager at ABSHER Construction, is showing you exactly how to build a resume that gets noticed.
Learn what recruiters actually look for, how to structure your experience so it's easy to scan, how to translate hands-on skills into resume language, and common mistakes to avoid. Walk away with a resume that's clearer, more confident, and more competitive.

Workshop 3: Menstruation (March 26)
Let's talk about periods on the jobsite. For real.
No access to bathrooms. No place to change. Long shifts with no breaks. Menstruation doesn't pause for construction schedules—but the industry has ignored it for decades.
Join Mathilde Roux for an essential workshop on menstruation in construction. We're covering the business case for workplace accommodations, policies that help, applicable laws and regulations, and how to build menstruation-friendly work environments for everyone.
It's time to make the jobsite work for all bodies.

The construction industry needs to talk about menopause. And we're doing it.
Hot flashes in a hard hat? Night sweats before a 6 AM shift? Menopause doesn't stop because you're on a jobsite—but the industry has been silent about it for too long.
Join Mathilde Roux for a groundbreaking workshop on menopause in construction. We're covering the business case for accommodations, workplace policies that actually help, applicable laws, and how we all play a role in creating menopause-responsive work environments.
This isn't just a women's issue—it's a workforce issue.

LIUNA’s sponsorship of the Enlighten Women’s Forum isn’t just support—it’s a statement.

For decades, LIUNA has played a critical role in opening doors for women in construction. Through union apprenticeships that pay you to learn, no-cost, high-quality training, and careers with strong wages, benefits, and retirement security, LIUNA has helped women build real, lasting futures in the industry.

This commitment is sustained—not symbolic. It shows up through Local Women’s Committees, nationally recognized apprenticeship programs, and intentional investment in training pipelines that prepare women to thrive, lead, and stay in the trades.

This is what it looks like when a union backs its values with action.
