Ideas for hiring

Need to do some hiring for a commercial plumbing company.

I plan on putting the adds in the local news papers but I wasn't sure where else to advertise. We should have a website up and going in a week or two and I would like to direct them to that for the submission of resumes.

Any ideas, besides newspapers, of where to advertise for experienced plumbers?
 
Plumbers are not exactly the type I'd expect to find through online positings.
There should be a trade magazine or guild that you could send into to advertise at.

I was thinking along those lines but anyone reading a trade magazine or associated with a guild would more than likely already have a job.

Craigslist, monster, ect....

We tried monster and a few others (hotjobs I think) and they turned up all of 2 possible applicants. I doubt a plumber seeking a job would post it on monster.
 
local want ads mebbe. when we are looking for new electricians, we go to the local IBEW as well as posting in the local paper want ads. we also hire temps in hopes of finding a skilled one that isnt a zombie or a moron

haha its sick that I know exactly what you mean. We are lucky to get plumbers when we ask for them; half the time we get electricians or something else.
