The Minnesota Market
Minnesota is one of the country's largest manufacturing states, and experienced CMM programmers here rarely stay on the market for long. The strongest candidates around Minneapolis and St. Paul are usually employed and not applying, so we recruit through direct outreach and referrals rather than job postings alone.
Every candidate we present is screened on CMM software, blueprint reading and GD&T before you see a resume, so your team spends its time interviewing people who can actually do the job.

Whether you need one CMM programmer in Minneapolis or a full inspection crew in St. Paul, we deliver screened candidates ready to contribute from day one.
