Whether you’re a candidate straight out of school seeking your first job, or someone who’s been in the industry for years and are looking to make a change; whether you’re a company hoping to hire new engineering talent, expand your existing pool, or start up a new department or venture, chances are, you’re looking for something very specific. After all, engineering is a broad discipline that covers many different focuses and specializations, and here at Austin Nichols Technical Search, we work with all of them.
The five main disciplines of engineering are: mechanical, electrical, chemical, industrial, and civil. Each of those has innumerable areas of specialization under it. In electrical engineering alone, for example, you can specialize in communications, computer software or hardware, control systems, electronics, optics, power systems, semiconductors, and more. So you could be an electrical engineer who focused on computer software, or a chemical engineer who focused on biotechnology. Whatever the focus of your training, chances are that’s the field you’d really like to work in, the one where you’d be the best fit, and where you’d find the best job with the best pay and benefits.
Similarly, if you’re a company looking to fill an engineering position, there’s a good chance that you’re looking for something specific. If you’re after a chemical engineer, you don’t want to see a lot of candidates who specialized in civil engineering.
As a contract recruiting firm in Kansas City for over 25 years, Austin Nichols has placed highly skilled engineering candidates in focused positions across a wide range of industries, including electronics, food, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, machining, sheet metal, plastics, transportation, mobile, HVAC, and many more. We know the importance of finding the right candidate for the right position. Our clients depend on it, and so do our candidates.
Over the years, we’ve helped both candidates and corporations meet the changing needs of infrastructure, technology, and an increasingly dynamic, mobile economy. While we work with engineering candidates and clients in every field of engineering, we see the most positions in mechanical and electrical engineering. Manufacturing engineering is also becoming an increasingly common major in education circles, as well as an increasingly sought-after position in the industry, and so we’ve worked heavily in that field as well. In fact, as manufacturing processes become increasingly high-tech, the dividing line between manufacturing and engineering continues to blur, and at Austin Nichols, we pride ourselves on being at the leading edge of both manufacturing and engineering when it comes to contract and direct hire recruiting.
So if you’re looking for a contract recruiting firm in Kansas City to fill your engineering needs—whether as a corporation looking for the right candidate to fill a position, or as a candidate looking to find the right job for your skills—Austin Nichols has the experience, the knowledge, and the know-how to match the best engineers with the best engineering positions, every time.
