Built for Tradespeople,
by Tradespeople

Our Mission

Collars is building a better future for the trades, by matching applicants and employers through a platform designed for real people, lasting careers, and the next generation of tradespeople.

Our Vision

To become the trusted advocates for the trades—changing how talent is discovered, respected, and supported, while connecting the next generation of tradespeople with real opportunities to build lasting blue-collar careers and the future of the trades.

Our Story

Collars was founded by Rocco Molfese, a fourth-generation tradesman, who, alongside his business partner and spouse, Cheri Molfese, built multiple successful trade companies. They know firsthand the hiring challenges in the trades—and they knew there had to be a better way. So, they created Collars: a hiring platform designed exclusively for blue-collar workers and the businesses that need them.

We Stand with Blue-Collar Workers

The trades have been overlooked for too long. Collars is more than a hiring platform—it’s an advocate for skilled workers.
  • Respect for the Trades – Blue-collar jobs are the backbone of our economy. It’s time they got the recognition they deserve.
  • Real Opportunities, Not Just Openings – We connect workers with jobs that pay well, offer growth, and respect their skills.
  • Power in Your Hands – Workers have direct access to jobs, employers, and career-building opportunities.
