Manufacturing staffing, Milwaukee and beyond

Production and HR hires, vetted for your floor and your culture

HR managers, directors, generalists, engineers and production management, screened for the skills and the fit before they reach you.

Chapter 01

HR managers, directors, generalists, engineers and production management

Manufacturing hiring splits into two kinds of seat: the people who run the floor and the people who hire for it. Cream City Recruiters, LLC places both. Its Milwaukee page lists manufacturing staffing for HR managers, directors and generalists, and its home page adds engineers. One of the firm's clients came to it for a Production Manager.

The firm's area pages carry the same work outward from Milwaukee. The Green Bay page lists manufacturing staffing for skilled laborers, technicians and plant managers. The Appleton page lists engineers, production specialists and supervisors. Those are the firm's own descriptions, and they show how wide the manufacturing desk reaches.

A Production Manager search, from call to hire

The clearest account of how this works comes from a client. William Beckett, President & CEO of CHRYSPAC, wrote in a Google review: “I was lucky to find Cream City Recruiters when we were looking for a new Production Manager. Monnie Holmes responded with three excellent candidates.”

The outcome he reports is the part a plant manager remembers: “within a couple of weeks we were able to hire someone who completely met our expectations.” Three candidates, and a hire in a couple of weeks. That is what the firm means when it says it only sends the top candidates who have the necessary skills and experience.

Behind a short list like that sits the screening the firm describes on its home page: pre-screening and testing, a recruiter who knows what to ask, and thorough referencing before anyone is put in front of you.

Fit with the plant, and temp-to-hire versus permanent

Skills get a candidate to the interview. Fit with the plant decides whether they are still there next year.

William Beckett singled out the second half of the work too. He credited Monnie with “vetting candidates with the experience, personal skills, professional skills, sophistication and intelligence to embrace our corporate culture”, and with “representing the candidates' objectives in a neutral manner”. A manufacturer hears the candidate's side as clearly as its own, which is how a mismatch gets caught before an offer rather than after.

The firm places temporary, temp-to-hire and permanent, with the emphasis on permanent. A temporary or temp-to-hire start suits a busy stretch or a seat you want to see worked before it is made permanent. A permanent search suits the seat you plan to build around. Every placement comes with the firm's 60 and 90 Day Guarantees.

“She did an excellent job of vetting candidates with the experience, personal skills, professional skills, sophistication and intelligence to embrace our corporate culture.” William Beckett, President & CEO, CHRYSPAC, Google review.
