🚀 Fueling the Future of Aerospace Manufacturing & Engineering 🚀 In aerospace, the margin for error is as thin as the atmosphere we strive to conquer. Just as every bolt and rivet holds a spacecraft together, the right talent is what keeps the industry soaring. As a recruiter, I’m not just matching resumes to job descriptions—I’m meticulously crafting the teams that will build the future. Imagine the process like assembling a high-precision engine. Each part must fit perfectly to ensure flawless performance. My role is to identify those rare components—candidates with niche skills—who will not only fit but also enhance the entire system. It’s a challenge I embrace with passion and precision, knowing that the right hire can be the catalyst for groundbreaking innovation. Leadership, to me, is about more than guiding teams; it’s about forging paths. In every search, I aim to lead with integrity, clarity, and a deep commitment to excellence. Whether it’s collaborating with hiring managers to understand their unique needs or mentoring fellow recruiters to refine their strategies, I’m driven by the same principle that governs aerospace: precision and perfection. Proud to be part of an industry that demands nothing less than excellence. Here’s to continuing to build the teams that will take us to new heights! Feel free to share your resumes if you are from Aerospace industry & looking for a new adventure.

Aerospace is brimming with exceptional talent.  Yet top leaders and engineers are slipping through your fingers. Advertised positions attract an huge number of applicants from candidates with little or non-relevant experience. The sheer volume of applications means that unique and capable individuals can sometimes be lost in the shuffle. The traditional hiring process, reliant on resumes, can fail to highlight the nuances that make the right candidate exceptional. This is where I step in to bridge the gap. My job is to meet many people.  But this isn’t an overnight process. I’ve been building relationships and a network with peers, colleagues and candidates since I worked as an engineering leader within this industry. And over time, I’ve filtered the noise and already know who is who, what they have done and what they’re capable of. So my clients aren’t busy filtering the noise. I do that for them. When most companies get flooded with all sorts of candidates, my clients are meeting tightly matched ones first.

#question can be adapted by anyone seeking an engineering or functional role within a company. Many a time in a matrix organisation a potential hire has not understood the depth and scope of the role when hired. It is a fast exit soon after hiring and explained by those who leave "the job was not as described" because the Q&A during hiring was not two-way. #zurich #humanresources #recruitment #jobsearch #talentmanagement

I rented a car a while ago. Just before handing me the keys, the clerk asked me: “Did you ever drove before this exact Blue Opel Corsa 1.4, 89 horse power with Petrol, model 2019?” Of course they didn’t ask me this. 😀 But this is how it sounds when you ask an engineer with 10+ years of experience with a particular technology. If you know the fundamentals, you can pick it up very fast. That’s why even big tech companies, who have the toughest interviews don’t ask this. Experienced engineers can learn anything. That’s how they got their experience. Interview for foundation, not for buzzwords. #interview #skills
