Manufacturier de presses hydrauliques
Even a small machine shop needs a well thought out hiring procedure. When you put together a system, you stand a much better chance of finding the right person for each job.
Here are 5 tips that will help you streamline your hiring system and help you choose workers that fit best into the job and your shop.
Write out a job description that accurately describes what you want your worker to do. This is true if you’re looking for someone to run your newest hydraulic press or if you need administrative help in the office.
Yes, most press operator jobs require basically the same skills. But each shop, including yours, has its own requirements. Be sure they are spelled out clearly in your job ad.
You get the most suitable applicants when prospective employees understand what the job entails. Include all the tasks you expect him to do and what experience he needs.
Don’t confine yourself to job hiring sites. Your workers are hanging out on social media sites, like Facebook and LinkedIn. Go where they are to find the largest pool of prospects.
Post your job ad. Answer questions. Let people know what you have to offer to new employees in the way of perks and benefits.
Set aside unhurried time for the job interview. Give it your full attention. It’s well worth it, an investment in the future stability and productivity of your company.
Ask about job experience and training. And go beyond that. Ask where the person wants to be in 10 years, listen to him when he describes what makes him excited about a job.
Be sure to leave time for the prospective worker to ask you questions. He needs to figure out if your machine shop is a good fit too.
This sounds so basic. It’s surprising how often it’s overlooked. Take the time to call past employers. And double-check that the person has the training he says he has.
It’s easier to find out during the hiring process that the would-be employee doesn’t have the skills you need. And much cheaper than finding out in the middle of a big production run.
It’s hard not to choose the first person that walks through the door when you’ve got a major job and deadline looming. But you won’t get the best worker that way.
Take the time to find a worker that matches your needs closely, has a good work history and a personality that meshes with your shop.
