The best machinist, controls engineer or plant manager for your opening is usually employed, busy and not reading job boards. A headhunter finds them and gives them a real reason to talk.
How we do it
- We search databases, networks and direct-source talent instead of relying only on active applicants.
- We recruit around the equipment, processes and responsibilities behind the title, so a strong candidate is not missed because another plant calls the job something different.
- We would rather tell you a candidate is wrong than sell you on a résumé just because a placement fee is available.
Jim Harris, President of Harris Manufacturing Solutions: “I have worked with Hans and his team for 4 years and have over 20+ hires with Compass Group.”
