The posting

Overview

Build your machining career with a growing manufacturer producing precision components for advanced industries, including the semiconductor market.

We’re looking for CNC Machinists who have a foundation in machining and want an opportunity to continue developing their skills. You’ll work primarily with CNC mills and lathes, including 3-axis mills and Haas equipment, while learning from experienced machinists in a well-equipped manufacturing environment.

We provide hands-on training and development to help motivated employees expand their skills, learn more advanced machining work, and take on greater responsibility over time.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
