Find the Best Manufacturing Jobs

Here are some quick tips for finding employees!

As a manufacturing business owner, you know that your operations can’t run smoothly without the efforts of your entire staff. There are many areas of a manufacturing business that require experienced, motivated employees. Unfortunately, finding these individuals can be challenging due to the competitive nature of this industry. Don’t fret, though. There are many recruiting strategies that can help you in your quest to employing the best manufacturing professionals.

  1. Use LinkedIn Recruiter – There’s a reason that LinkedIn is the social media giant of the professional world. The platform offers numerous tools that make it easy for busy employers to contact potential employees. LinkedIn has advanced recruiting filters that make it easier to find candidates with the exact skills you’re looking for. For instance, if you’re searching for specific titles like tailor, assembler or upholstery, you’ll be able to see a list of people in these roles. Instead of sharing your job posting on random career sites, it might be more productive to share your open positions on LinkedIn. This way, you can utilize their recruiting tools until you find the candidates you’re looking for.
  2. Post in manufacturing groups on social media – Connect with manufacturing professionals in social media groups. Platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn have numerous groups dedicated solely to the manufacturing industry, so you’ll be able to interact solely with individuals in this space. This is a great strategy not only for recruiting but for networking and making valuable connections in the industry.
  3. Hire a staffing service – Don’t have time to manage the recruitment process? No problem! There are many staffing services that can take charge of locating and interviewing prospective employees for you. Once you provide them with a job posting and some information about the type of applicant you’re looking for, they can take care of the rest. Of course, you’ll be paying for these services, so ensure that you have money available in your manufacturing business budget.
  4. Ask existing employees for referrals – An easy way to meet applicants is to ask your current employees to spread the word about job openings. They’ll be able to tell these individuals about what it’s like to work at your company, and it will save you time in terms of recruiting. Of course, you may want to consider giving employees who recruit a small bonus for their hard work and dedication.
