LISTEN: Gen Z in Manufacturing: How to Hire Outside the Traditional Talent Pool
•
Eric Sorensen
Welcome to another episode of Gen Z in Manufacturing, a podcast that asks young people about their journeys in manufacturing, how they intend to influence the industry and what they are looking for from an employer.
For this episode, I welcome Maggie Blaney, a 26-year-old solutions engineer at Epicor.
In this episode, Blaney discusses:
- Why her early interest in manufacturing didn’t immediately translate into pursuing a career (1:01)
- How to promote growth within a company (6:21)
- Which parts of a shop floor attract Gen Z (10:59)
- How Gen Z expects a company to use technology (12:57)
