Recruitment For Manufacturers | Intergage Marketing Engineers

More than 75% of manufacturers report a moderate to severe shortage of skilled workers.

Recruiting new staff in the manufacturing industry is tough. Less candidates, more demand and an aging workforce means there could be a shortage of up to 2 million manufacturing employees in the next decade (Talroo).

It’s likely that recruitment is amongst your top challenges as a manufacturing business. This means you struggle to:

Maintain and scale-up business growth
Keep up with orders
Keep skilled staff you have invested in.

The solution

Just like your marketing, you need a strategy for recruitment that:

Outlines who you’re marketing to
Builds your employer brand
Nurtures candidates before, during and after application
Tells stories that matter
Sets you apart from the competition.

Recruitment in manufacturing is not going to get easier. Over the next decade, there could be a shortage of more than 2 million skilled workers in manufacturing.

Recruiting Vs. Recruitment Marketing

More than 60% of the talent you need to recruit are already satisfied in their current job, yet 48% of them will be open to new roles. That means there is a wealth of talent that aren’t actively searching for a new job. You need a recruitment strategy that will allow you to connect with that passive talent, as well as the talent that is actively looking for employment.

This is where recruitment marketing comes in.

Talentlyft’s model explains recruitment marketing perfectly. It focuses on creating a longer-term strategy to attract and nurture potential employees. This means you’re more likely to avoid a recruitment crisis because you have already built a following of potential candidates through great content, laser-focused messaging and enhanced experiences. Sounds just like marketing, right?
