Why Manufacturers Choose SkillSource Tech for Machinist Recruiting
Finding a qualified CNC machinist isn’t just about matching a resume to a job description — it’s about verifying real, hands-on shop floor competency before that candidate ever reaches your interview room. Our recruiters vet every machinist candidate for the specifics that actually matter to precision manufacturing: blueprint reading, GD&T comprehension, setup and operation experience on the exact equipment your shop runs, and a track record of holding tight tolerances under real production pressure.
What We Screen For
Hands-on CNC Setup and machine operation experience (Mill, Lathe, Swiss-type, EDM, multi-axis)
Familiarity with control systems like Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Mazak, and Okuma
Blueprint and GD&T reading proficiency
Ability to import CAM templates and edit at the machine via G&M codes
Familiarity with “Feeds and Speeds” and which tooling to use for the particular job
Quality-system awareness relevant to regulated industries (AS9100, ISO 9001, ITAR where applicable)
Verified work history and references specific to precision machining environments
Our Placement Process
We don’t just forward resumes. Every candidate in our network goes through a structured screening process built specifically around the realities of precision manufacturing hiring — technical vetting, availability and relocation logistics, and salary/rate expectations confirmed upfront, so the candidates who reach your desk are ready to move forward, not just technically qualified on paper.
