Your mechanical engineering recruitment team

The variety of jobs that require mechanical engineering professionals can make it a challenge for employers to recruit the right people for their opportunities. Mechanical engineering is a very broad field. While most mechanical engineers work in manufacturing, research and development, or at companies that offer engineering services, these versatile individuals are often called on to develop automation systems, design products, develop new technology and tools, and otherwise drive innovation across sectors. The qualifications of a mechanical engineering job will vary just as widely depending on the industry, the projects they’ll work on, and the solutions you need them to deliver.

Luckily, 180 Engineering has had success as a recruiting and executive search firm placing a wide range of mechanical engineers and mechanical engineering managers.

Austin Sanders

I worked with 180 Engineering for my job placement / interview process.

My recruiter (TJ) was great, and he helped me to stay in the loop throughout the interview and hiring processes. He gave me some guidance on the broader elements of the interview (how many rounds to expect, what type of interview each round would be, etc.), and he was a proactive communicator throughout the process.

The other folks that I worked with at 180 Engineering were similarly communicative, and they facilitated the travel planning + reimbursements processes well.

Overall, they made the interview, communication, and hiring pipeline seamless and straightforward.
