We find the people who never answer a job posting

- Passive candidate sourcing through a deep manufacturing network.
- Technical screening by recruiters who’ve done the work.
- 6-month placement guarantee on every search.
Specialists outperform generalists on the hard roles
We target, we don’t post
Job boards reach the 20% who are actively looking. We go after the 80% who aren’t — the technicians and engineers already doing the job well somewhere else.
We screen technically
We ask the questions you would ask: PLC platforms, troubleshooting approach, controls architecture, reliability methods. Resumes don’t tell you who can actually do it.
We guarantee the fit
Every placement is backed by a 6-month guarantee. We’re not filling a seat — we’re building your team, and we stand behind it.
A proven, technical search process
Companies want to know how the work gets done. Here is exactly how we run every search — from the plant floor to follow-up.
Discovery
We walk your floor (in person or virtually), learn your equipment, shift structure, and what “good” actually looks like for the role.
Technical Recruiting
We tap our manufacturing network and target the passive technicians and engineers who never apply to job boards.
Candidate Screening
Every candidate is vetted for stability, motivation, shift fit, and the practical skills the role demands.
Technical Interview
We interview on PLCs, controls, troubleshooting and reliability — because we’ve done the work ourselves.
Client Interview
We present a short list of qualified, interested candidates and coordinate the entire interview loop for you.
Offer
We manage the offer, counter-offer and resignation conversation so your hire actually shows up on day one.
Follow-Up
We check in through onboarding and the full guarantee period to make sure the placement sticks.
From the floor to the front office
Trusted by the people who run the plant
Nothing builds trust faster than results. Here’s what plant managers, maintenance leaders and placed candidates say.
EAS sent us three maintenance techs who could actually read a ladder logic program. Our agency before them sent resumes; EAS sent technicians.
Food Manufacturing · Midwest
They understood the difference between a controls engineer who can talk about PLCs and one who can stand at the panel and fix it at 2 a.m. That changed our hiring.
Packaging · Southeast
We had a reliability engineer seat open for eight months. EAS filled it in five weeks with someone who was never going to answer a job posting.
Beverage · Northeast
