In-Finite Search Solutions
At In-Finite Search Solutions we are on a quest to connect Americas greatest companies with the top talent they need!
Choosing a great employee can be difficult, especially in the manufacturing trade where dependability, experience, and work ethic are necessities. Moreover, facilities must also consider how potential hires can adapt to technology-based and assembly-line production as the industry landscape shifts.
Naturally, you want to ensure your team is properly equipped to navigate the floor efficiently and skillfully. For this reason, as managers or business owners, assessing how potential workers will enhance the company is critical.
Here at In-Finite, we understand how one employee can impact overall operations. We’ve compiled 10 essential traits of a good crew member to aid your hiring process.
Here's one for you now:
Critical Thinking Skills
A sharp wit is one of the most valuable qualities of a good worker. An employee who assesses the situation and formulates a solution on the spot can troubleshoot missteps before they turn into substantial problems or emergencies. In the end, you know you can rely on them to effectively handle operations while you’re away.
The manufacturing sector stands on the brink of a seismic shift. As Baby Boomers retire and technology revolutionizes the workplace, a new generation is emerging to take the helm: Gen Z.
With their digital fluency and progressive values, Gen Z could be the key to tackling many of today’s manufacturing challenges. According to the National Student Clearinghouse, some 16% students enrolled in vocational-focused community colleges in 2023, a number that’s on the rise.
On one hand, this trend bridges a skills gap; at the same time, this trend is coming along right when the manufacturing sector most needs a sense of innovation and resilience.
