The National Tile Contractors Association (NTCA), the largest tile contractors association in the world, recently launched the NTCA Career Center, an interactive job board for industry professionals. With its focus on ceramic tile, natural stone and allied industry companies and professionals, the NTCA Career Center offers its members—and the industry at large—an easy to use and highly targeted resource for online employment connections.

Both members and non-members can access the user-friendly NTCA Career Center at www.tilejobs.net or by logging onto the NTCA website at www.tile-assn.com and clicking on Career Center. Job seeking professionals and industry employers enjoy this free opportunity to search online for the best industry jobs and qualified candidates to fill them.

Employers can post jobs online, search for qualified candidates based on specific job criteria, and create an online resume agent to email qualified candidates daily. Customized searches can help keep track of most recent applicants, and online reporting can provide job activity statistics. Employers can find a qualified candidate in four designated professional categories in the floor covering industry: contracting, distribution, fabrication and manufacturing.

Though devised, designed and supported by NTCA, the NTCA Career Center is “absolutely not a members-only service,” said Bart Bettiga, NTCA executive director. “The goal here is to create an ‘Industry Career Center’ that serves the needs of all professional categories. The simple, easy-to-navigate format features four professional categories of contracting, distribution, fabrication and manufacturing. All four categories have companies interested in hiring individuals that are qualified. This does a great job of qualifying the candidate prior to the interview process.”

NTCA Career Center is the premier resource for companies looking for experienced specialists and professionals seeking job opportunities in the floor covering industry.
