America is facing a massive shortage of workers. While the jobs market has been on some very steady footing over the past few years, the unemployment rate is way down and some wages are way up…
Nearly every sector across our economy still needs more people to come to work. And because there’s a higher demand for workers than at any time in the recent past, this means the current situation employers find themselves in could be great news for anyone searching for a job today.
So, whether you’re looking for a better job in the industry you already work in, or you want to completely change what you do for a living, now’s a great time to find a new job, because you could have a lot of bargaining power!
In just a few moments, FindYourJobNow.com will show you one of the easiest ways to find a new job. And today we’re going to show you how to find a job in manufacturing.
Now, over just the past few months, we’ve seen a strong growth in the need for workers in manufacturing. In fact, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly 13 million U.S. workers are employed in manufacturing.[1]
And…
Construction spending to create new factories in the US just hit an all-time high![2]
More factories mean more jobs, and those jobs aren’t like they used to be.
While some people may think of manufacturing as soot covered people shuffling in and out of a rusty old factory building, bringing a lunchbox and hard-hat with them every day, the truth is manufacturing work has changed drastically since the 1970’s. And the perception of manufacturing has changed even more quickly.
A recent report from Deloitte says, “Compared with our 2017 study, significantly more respondents believe that manufacturing jobs are innovative, and more respondents are likely to encourage their child to pursue a career in the industry.”[3]
Yes, today’s manufacturing jobs are more innovative, and more people are seriously considering working in manufacturing.
Why? Well, there are a number of reasons people are considering working in manufacturing, and these include:
Pay and benefits – A recent report showed that manufacturing workers earned an average annual wage of nearly $100,000. But what’s more, 84% of private industry manufacturing workers have retirement benefits through their jobs, and 91% receive healthcare benefits![4]
And like we said earlier, the days of the rusty old factory building, with dangerous equipment, have mostly gone away.
Today’s manufacturing jobs are much safer and cleaner than those of the past. Factories now have great technology like robots to do dangerous work, with people being further away from the danger zone.
And, because of robotics and computers, today’s manufacturing jobs are often for much more skilled people (as evidenced by the high salaries).
So, if finding a job in manufacturing is something you think could be a benefit to you, simply go to FindYourJobNow.com’s homepage and type “manufacturing” into the Job Description search bar…
Then type where you want to work in the Location search bar, and you’ll see manufacturing jobs near you.
