This is the sort of thing that every company should aim for, loyal staff who want to benefit the business. To gain some tips on how to do this, keep reading.
Employee Retention Program
Press-Seal has an ongoing alliance with local universities and educational facilities in the greater Fort Wayne area to attract and retain qualified employees. It is an effort put forth by leadership to “Make manufacturing cool again” to educate students and parents that you can make a viable living through manufacturing.
Attract Talent & Job Shadowing Event
Part of this strategy for 2017 will include our attendance at the 2017 NICE Knowledge Cafe’ luncheon.
President John Kaczmarczyk will be speaking on points of family, community, education, university and business as well as the most valuable asset any company has – people.

The mission of the Press-Seal Youth Career Readiness Program is to offer all students authentic career exploration opportunities inside local Fort Wayne businesses through a collaborative network of business leaders, educators, and community stakeholders.
The program will bring students, parents and business together in a process of career exploration. Students and parents will be involved in multiple “career shadowing” and internship opportunities during the student’s academic career. These authentic experiences will provide students with a foundational experience in areas of career interests and allow the families to reflect on the possibilities open to students in the Greater Fort Wayne business theater.
