???? DIY is in our DNA as manufacturers. But can that double edged sword slow you down? ????? We take pride in solving problems ourselves, machining to impossible tolerances, and pushing our limits. That’s what makes us great! But sometimes, that same DIY mindset can hold us back. Take recruiting, for example. Just like buying a high-end machine tool doesn’t automatically make you a great machinist, simply paying for LinkedIn or an applicant tracking service won’t make you a staffing expert. Recruiting and hiring is a craft—one that requires experience, strategy, and a LOT of time to do right. At AME and Hennig we tried the “DIY” approach to hiring. We posted jobs, searched databases, and spent hours (and hours) screening candidates—only to spin our wheels and end up frustrated. Once we partnered with true recruiting experts, we were able to consistently bring top-tier manufacturing leaders who are now driving our business forward. That’s why we launched HireMFGLeaders(dot)com. We wanted to solve the biggest problem manufacturing leaders share. Finding top talent. Thanks to the hard work from my partners in this project and the MakingChips network.

?? MFG Tech folks...listen up! ?? I see you! Scaling Fast? You Need the Right People. Manufacturing isn’t just about machines, it’s about people. The right engineers, operators, programmers, sales reps, and leaders are what separate thriving companies from struggling ones. And it’s not just machine shops that need talent. Manufacturing tech companies are scaling faster than ever, and hiring the right people is make-or-break. ?? That’s where HireMFGLeaders.com comes in. Whether you're a growing job shop or a high-tech manufacturing solutions company, here’s why a manufacturing-specific recruiter makes sense: ? Saves Time – Hiring isn't your full-time job. Let experts find top candidates while you focus on scaling. ? Finds the Right Fit – A bad hire costs time, money, and momentum. We match candidates who fit your culture and mission. ? Taps into Hidden Talent – The best candidates aren’t scrolling job boards. We reach the passive market—the ones you actually want. ? Filters the Noise – No more sorting through unqualified resumes. We bring you only the best options. ? Asks the Tough Questions – We vet candidates so you don’t have to. We’ve already placed game-changing talent in the manufacturing tech space. Your next key hire? They might be just a conversation away. ?? Ready to grow?

I've interviewed dozens of successful shop owners on Machine Shop Mastery and THE common element is their fanatical focus on culture, core values and being a great place to work. You just can't succeed without being a great place to work. But even if you have the best culture, it's still hard to find and recruit great people who will further your culture! Recruiting the best talent takes significant effort and time. Manufacturing leaders are generally not suited to do this well, and your time is best spent running your business. ?? We at MakingChips have recognized this across the hundreds of conversations we've had in the past, and we've partnered with Tree Top Staffing LLC who are absolute experts in finding technical staff for manufacturing companies. Since we launched our partnership just a few days ago, the demand has made it so obvious that manufacturers have a huge need to hire great people that will further their culture and their growth goals.

It’s been said that there’s nothing more expensive than a bad hire. Between the costs, lost time, and missed opportunities, the wrong hire can set your business back significantly. Hiring for leadership roles in manufacturing is especially challenging. You need the perfect balance of technical skills, leadership ability, and cultural fit – all while dealing with the pressures of a busy business season. So, when do you turn to a professional recruiter? Here are 6 reasons why manufacturers should consider professional recruitment services like HireMFGLeaders.com: 1?? Save Time: Recruiting is time-consuming. Let recruiters handle the sourcing, screening, and interviews, freeing up your team to focus on running the business. 2?? Find the Right Cultural Fit: Recruiters understand the unique culture of your business and match candidates who align with your values and vision. 3?? Access a Broader Talent Pool: Great recruiters have an extensive network and can reach qualified candidates you might not find on your own. 4?? Filter Out the Unqualified: Recruiters do the hard work of weeding out unsuitable candidates, saving you from wasting time on unproductive interviews. 5?? Ask the Tough Questions: They know how to dig deeper and ask the questions that uncover a candidate’s true fit. 6?? De-risk the Hiring Process: With services like HireMFGLeaders.com, you only pay once you’ve hired the right candidate, with a replacement guarantee if they don’t work out. Not every hiring need requires a recruiter, but for high-stakes leadership roles, specialized skills, and ensuring a cultural fit, they’re a game-changer. When should you hire a recruiter? When time is short, the role is critical, or specialized knowledge is needed. ??
