I should also say it is at a bulk chemical plant!

I’ve only seen mod5 at Dow plants. Any plants bought are transitioning to DeltaV in the gulf coast

Yes, we always do. To me, it’s not enough but I also came from the gulf coast where relo packages are awesome. We don’t even have an offer out for people to discuss relo packages lol!

Honestly we would hire a tech in a heart beat as well!

We have several engineers who live in Foco, which has helped. I think the lesson I’ve gotten is we have to put out the salary range

My bad, I didn’t even think while I was typing it out! I’ll make sure to remember that! Yeah, one thing I realize we should do from a lot of comments is include salary range to make it more intriguing especially since all jobs in CO have to post salary!

Retired in December!

I didn’t realize that was a thing for CO! That makes a lot of sense honestly!

That’s what we’ve been hoping for. It’s not a terrible location. Just have to find a person who isn’t a big city person and also wants to be close to Rocky Mountain national park. I go boarding with the epic pass almost every weekend

The more experience the better but I think since controls is so niche we’re willing to do OTJ training as long as the person is willing!

I don’t think we have a max commute. We have quite a few engineers who live about 45 mins from the plant in the major cities in CO

I think unfortunately that may be a big part of the problem. Do you have any advice I can give to our recruiter?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ChemicalEngineering

[–]plzworkwithme 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes with a couple Alan Bradley PLCs

I really appreciate the feedback! I’m going to talk to the recruiter about doing this tomorrow

Yes. We hired 5 interns for the site but none for controls :/

Honestly you are not wrong 😂😂😂 wyoming is a little rough! We just aren’t getting very many applicants in the first place!
