Attracting New Talent
How do we attract new talent to our industry, fill our open positions, and preserve the deep, intuitive knowledge of our most veteran employees now on the verge of retirement? These are crucial questions indeed but where do we begin to address the problem? Are we seeking the right type of employee? Does manufacturing hold the attention and interest of the new generation, especially with competition from programming giants? Are high schools adequately addressing the interests of students who enjoy hands-on, problem-solving type of work? Are college graduates prepared for the types of job opportunities in front of them? Do future employees have the soft skills to maintain their employment?
In this issue of SMT007 Magazine, we explore these questions by talking directly to employers, educators, students, and early-career employees. Join us, as we learn what it takes to hire well in these competitive times.
