Employer advice

We have been in the recruitment industry for over 18 years, we are very accommodating towards the variety of requirements the engineering sector demands. We have an ever-expanding engineering network that runs through the entire UK.

It is extremely common for clients to request specific skills and experience in order to be considered for the role they are filling. Such as, a Joinery Project Manager having at least 5 years within a previous management role within joinery projects.

Although having appropriate work experience and specific qualifications are necessary, some believe that there are more benefits from lesser experienced candidates.

They’re Flexible

Why not start with a blank canvas? A newly qualified applicant with little to no work experience, wouldn’t have picked up bad habits from previous employment or be set in their ways. This would enable you to shape your ideal employee that would have training directly for you. Helping the new employee develop efficient approaches that match your work culture.

Dedication and Innovation

They are new to the engineering industry! After just finishing their studies and/or qualifications, they are more eager to stuck in and maintain passion for their role. There is an overwhelming difference between inexperienced and uneducated applicants. With their fresh pair of eyes, they could bring innovation to your business and their enthusiasm could help maintain a motivated team.

Cost Effective

Finding new employees can be expensive - the more experience they possess, the higher pay they expect. Pay packages are very competitive and could even influence employees to demand pay rises due to their experience within the engineering industry. Someone inexperienced will require a lower basic salary, saving your business unnecessary expense. This could also open opportunities for the new employee to invest in their development, allowing the candidate to grow and be eager for incentives when reaching specific achievements.

Reliability and Loyality

By offering the chance to develop within a company, their business loyalty with strengthen. Don’t let experienced employees that feel self-entitlement, ruin the workplace culture. Rather than this leading to costs for recruitment and replacements, offer an ever expanding opportunity to inexperienced and passionate employees.
