Q: What’s the most prevalent roadblock that Rhinestahl encounters when it comes to hiring and what can jobseekers do to remedy that situation?
A: “Our biggest roadblock is student awareness of great careers in manufacturing like machining, welding, and industrial maintenance. Students and parents think the only career in manufacturing is through a 4-year engineering degree. Not true. Students with these skills are being hired in to great paying entry-level jobs, and working full-time while starting college. These students have a leg up on advanced skills, an established work history and college tuition that is paid for - the roadblock is not knowing there is another pathway.”
