International Automotive Components

Michigan Works! contacted International Automotive Components, IAC, after hearing there was a possibility that they were going to hire 50 to 100 people. We let them know the benefits employers have by using Michigan Works!, such as free job postings, accepting applications for them, and on the job training for newly hired employees.

 

Michigan Works! assisted IAC by posting job openings for 50 operators, accepted applications, and screened the applications using their guidelines. Over 500 applications were filled out during the five weeks that the job opening remained on the Michigan Talent Bank. After the applications had been screened by the Michigan Works! staff, calls were made to schedule interviews with the prospective employees. Human Resource Manager, Brian Tenny, interviewed a total of 120 applicants on six different occasions using interview space at Michigan Works!.

 

As of March 23rd, a total of 73 people were hired, with 16 of those being eligible for the On the Job Training (OJT). An OJT offers employers a chance to hire an individual whose skills may not be exactly what they are looking for, and to train them to the specifications that the job requires.

 

Brian Tenny had this to say about Michigan Works!, "Working collaboratively with Michigan Works! for our staffing needs has been a wonderful experience. It is refreshing to do business with an agency that is truly committed to matching the right people with the right organization in order to insure the best chance of success for both the candidates and company alike. I have been impressed by the professionalism and responsiveness of the entire staff of the Alma office, and particularly grateful for the amazing service we have been provided by Julie Hoffman, our primary Employment Specialist contact. Julie's attentiveness, positive attitude, and willingness to go above and beyond has not only earned our admiration and respect, but also earned our future business. As we continue to grow at IAC, we look forward to developing our relationship and working with Michigan Works! to find the right local talent for our opportunities."
