Why it’s difficult to hire in the additive and advanced manufacturing industry.

Talent shortage

The demand for talent is growing faster than the supply. This means that very few professionals are actively looking for new job opportunities in the additive and advanced manufacturing industry.

Salary

In this young industry, there is yet to be an established salary benchmark. Employers are throwing darts in terms of salary, resulting in job offers being rejected by candidates

Costly and time-consuming

Finding the right professional in an industry with a talent shortage and few active candidates is time consuming and costly.

No! We are here to help save you time on recruitment. We will help to create the job adverts, we will advertise the jobs and we will actively headhunt to save you time and effort.

How long will it take you to find me the right professional?

Upon signing the contract, it will take between 6-8 weeks until your position is filled, and the right professional starts his/hers first day. This time-to-hire will depend on a few things

  • The flexibility of the candidate (in terms of salary and/or relocation)
  • The complexity of the role
  • Your time and availability to conduct interviews

Our headhunting is targeted at companies similar to yours, including your competitors, so that you will get the best fitting professionals for your business.

Where will the jobs be advertised?

They will be advertised on our own website and on LinkedIn

What makes Alexander Daniels Global special?

We pride ourselves on our specialization and knowledge of the industry. Our recruiters know what they are talking about, which makes clients trust us and which results in a much stronger job-talent match

What happens if you don’t find the right professional?

This still hasn’t happened to us. Should the case occur, you are not liable to pay.

If we hire someone through you and the professional leaves, what happens?

If the professional leaves within 6 months of hiring, we are happy to replace this professional with a similar profile – free of charge

The hiring process at my company often involves the candidates getting to know confidential information that we don’t want disclosed to our competitors. What if we end up not hiring the candidate? How do you deal with this?

We are happy to help you deal with this issue by providing a template for a non-disclosure agreement that you can have the candidates sign
