Construction Jobs in Minnesota: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a construction worker in Minnesota?

Most construction trades in Minnesota are regulated by the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry, which issues licenses for contractors, electricians, plumbers, and related trades. The path varies by trade: electricians and plumbers complete an apprenticeship registered with the state, pass a licensing exam, and apply for a journeyman or master license. For general construction work, a union apprenticeship through the North Central States Regional Council of Carpenters or a local IBEW chapter is one of the most reliable entry points.

Which companies hire construction workers in Minnesota?

Companies currently hiring constructions in Minnesota include Duininck Golf, The Boldt Company, and Mortenson Construction, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Minnesota's active pipeline of public infrastructure projects, healthcare campus expansions, and multi-family housing developments keeps demand steady across both union and open-shop employers.

Which Minnesota cities have the most construction jobs?

Minneapolis, Rochester, and Saint Paul account for the largest share of construction openings in Minnesota. The Twin Cities metro drives the bulk of activity because of its scale of commercial development, ongoing highway and transit infrastructure work, and large healthcare and university campus projects, while secondary markets reflect growth in regional medical centers, distribution facilities, and municipal infrastructure investment.

Are there remote construction jobs in Minnesota?

Yes, but they're rare. About 39% of construction openings tied to Minnesota are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, because most construction work requires physical presence on a job site. The roles most likely to be performed off-site are project estimating, scheduling, building information modeling, and construction management coordination functions that don't require daily site visits.

How can I get hired in construction in Minnesota with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is a registered apprenticeship, which combines paid on-site work with classroom training and requires no prior experience to apply. In Minnesota, programs through the North Central States Regional Council of Carpenters and local IBEW and Pipefitters union halls accept entry-level applicants regularly. Large general contractors like Mortenson and Kraus-Anderson also hire laborers and helper-level positions as a way to get on site. Earning an OSHA 10-hour card before applying gives candidates a concrete edge.

Where can I find and apply to construction jobs in Minnesota?

You can find and apply to construction jobs in Minnesota on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers actively hiring in the state. Search by city, trade, or experience level to find roles that fit your background, then apply directly to the ones that match.
