When I’m hiring a driver, there are 4 particular qualities I’m looking for. (Here’s something I wouldn’t normally reveal). ? Yes, I do look for experience. Yes, I do look for a good attitude. ? But I mostly look for these 4 things: ? 1. A safety-conscious mind. ? This is a dangerous industry. A truck driver who understands and respects basic safety principles, mass/dimensions, fatigue and load restraint. But I want to see that this driver lives and breathes safety, first and foremost. ? 2. Attention to detail. ? You’re carrying thousands of tonnes of steel on the road. It can be a weapon if not used correctly. I want to hire a driver who knows their trucks and their HVNL obligations to a tee and, if they don’t, their willingness to learn the detail. If you can’t do detail, you can’t do trucks. ? 3. The ability to handle stress ? This is not a cosy office job. Things will come up that you don’t expect. Whether that’s something as simple as a traffic jam on a key route or something as terrifying as hitting a kangaroo. I want to feel confident that you can handle the job when things don’t go to plan. ? 4. A strong ‘why’. ? Yes, I know you want to be a truck driver because it pays. But I also want you to show me that you’re a driver for a personal reason – whether that’s because you love driving, you love being outside or you generally love the industry. I want you to tell me your story, and how my company can play a role in that story - otherwise you'll come and go, and recruitment and training is incredibly expensive. ? Anything I missed?

What's the difference between feeling comfortable and being complacent as a recruiter? Feeling comfortable implies confidence and capability while still pursuing growth. Conversely, being complacent leads to stagnation and a lack of drive for development. Watch to understand the crucial differences and how they impact your career growth. #Talentdiesel #dieseltechnician #dieselrecruiting #techrecruiting #mustwatch #diesel #talentacquisition #dieselmechanic #HeavyEquipment #DieselJobs #SkilledTrades #Recruiting #Logistics #FleetManagement #dieselcareers

“You’ll do great somewhere else.” Letting an employee go is never easy but it’s part of running a successful business. That’s why I love the phrase, “You’ll do great somewhere else.” I picked it up from a shop owner and it perfectly captures an effective mindset when letting someone go. It acknowledges that the individual has unique and valuable skills that will be a great asset to another business. It’s not a personal attack on the employee. It’s hopeful and positive. It helps you end on good terms and keeps the door open for future opportunities once the individual has grown or developed additional skills. Then you will have the quandary of the rehire. We’ll cover that on another day. #Jobs #Staffing #Employment #StaffingAgency #Repair #Auto #Hiring #Automotive #Mechanic #Technician #TechnicianFind #AutoRepair #AutoRepairShop

Why Are Diesel Mechanics Hard to Hire? ???? In today's competitive job market, finding skilled diesel mechanics has become increasingly challenging. As the vice president of sales for JobsInLogistics.com, I've observed firsthand the hurdles recruiters face in this niche. But why is it so tough to hire these essential professionals? One significant reason is the aging workforce. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average age of diesel mechanics in the U.S. is over 40, with many nearing retirement. This creates a gap as experienced mechanics leave the workforce faster than new ones can be trained. Additionally, fewer young people are entering the trade, often opting for careers in technology or other fields perceived as more lucrative or glamorous. Another factor is the specialized skill set required. Diesel mechanics must possess a deep understanding of complex engine systems, diagnostic tools, and the latest technological advancements in the industry. This level of expertise isn't easily acquired and requires extensive training and hands-on experience. As a result, the pool of qualified candidates is relatively small, making competition for top talent fierce. At JobsInLogistics.com, we strive to bridge this gap by connecting recruiters with the most qualified candidates in the logistics and transportation sectors. Our personalized approach and industry-specific focus help ensure that job postings reach the right audience, maximizing exposure and attracting top-tier talent. #DieselMechanics #LogisticsRecruitment #JobMarketInsights

A VP of Sales for one of the major Job Boards (otherwise known as one of the #CashCows) recently posted that they were now able to assist carriers in the recruiting and hiring of Diesel Mechanics / Technicians. (BTW, I want to thank David Arsenault of Randall Reilly for providing the search data that #DieselMechanics search for jobs using the search phrase "Diesel Mechanic" 10X's more often than the search phrase "Diesel Technician". Anyhow this VP outlined the importance of Diesel Mechanics in the trucking / transportation industry ...something along these lines. (See below ...) Unfortunately, they #DELETED the post when the question was asked ... Why is it that Truck Drivers are recruited and hired through a Driver Recruiting Dept., yet Diesel Mechanics (or any other employee) are recruited and hired normally through HR (Human Resources) ?? Why is there a difference in the process and focus on not only hiring a qualified individual (Diesel Mechanic), but also ensuring that they are the highest Quality candidate ?? ================= A synopsis of the VP of Sales LinkedIn posting ... Diesel Mechanics are the backbone of our transportation and manufacturing industries, ensuring that engines keep running smoothly, vehicles stay on the road, and operations remain efficient. However, in recent years, recruiting, hiring, and retaining skilled diesel mechanics has become increasingly challenging. Here's why: 1?? Growing Demand, Shrinking Workforce: As our economy expands, the demand for diesel mechanics is skyrocketing. Yet, the pool of skilled mechanics is dwindling due to factors like retirement, lack of vocational training, and a shift towards other professions. 2?? Technological Advancements: Modern diesel engines are becoming more complex with sophisticated electronic systems. While this enhances performance, it also requires mechanics to undergo continuous training to keep pace with evolving technology. 3?? Perception vs. Reality: There's a misconception that vocational jobs like diesel mechanics are less prestigious or financially rewarding compared to white-collar professions. This leads to fewer young people considering careers in this field. ================= First observation, the post sure seems to be interchangeable with the issues surrounding recruiting & hiring truck drivers, doesn't it ?? Hmmm ... if we are focusing on #QUALITY in the recruiting and hiring process for #EVERY other employee, other than #TruckDrivers ... Why are we #NOT focusing on #Quality when recruiting & hiring #TruckDrivers, besides their #Qualifications ?? Could it be that the #CashCows rule?? Or is it that the #StatusQuo rules ?? Either way, it's #COSTING trucking companies "boatloads" of money !! What are #YOUR thoughts ??
