Certifications buried in resumes, plants that each hire their own way, and turnover that never stops. Lehire screens every applicant against the same bar and keeps the evidence.
Where manufacturing hiring actually breaks
Manufacturing hiring decisions get made fast, at volume, by people whose real job is running a plant. Without structure, the bar moves every time.
Certifications and safety records buried in PDFs
Forklift certs, welding quals, OSHA training. The details that matter most are the hardest to spot when skimming a stack of resumes.
Structured extraction, explicit scoring
Lehire structures every resume and scores it against role criteria, surfacing certifications, machine experience, and tenure patterns with reasoning attached.
Each plant hires to its own standard
Site A’s supervisor screens for experience, Site B’s for attitude. Same role, different bars, uneven quality and safety exposure.
One rubric across every site
The role rubric is defined once and applied everywhere. Every site screens, interviews, and decides on the same criteria.
Constant turnover, constant restarting
Backfilling the same roles month after month, and every search starts from an empty pile.
A talent pool that compounds
Every applicant you have ever screened is searchable and re scoreable. Backfills start from ranked, pre evaluated candidates instead of zero.
Define the role bar
Set explicit criteria per role: certifications required, machine experience, shift availability, safety record signals.
