Ep 42: You Better Hire Them When You Find Them
👤MRC Recruiting Team 🎙️Lindsey Schultz, CEO of MRC Recruiting Hiring in mining is getting more selective, but not necessarily faster. This team conversation gets into the real friction: companies need talent, candidates have options, and both sides are still figuring out what "fit" really means. The MRC team talks through what they're seeing in today's mining hiring market, where demand is growing, but decisions are still slowed by caution, relocation challenges, and a shortage of specialized talent. They discuss how candidates are thinking more intentionally about culture, family, stability, and whether a role is actually worth changing jobs for. They also spend time on an issue many companies still avoid: international candidates who need sponsorship, but may be some of the most capable and motivated people in the market. The conversation comes back to trust, clear communication, and the idea that better hiring happens when both companies and candidates are honest earlier. Our Promise: We spend time with people who are actually doing the work in mining, engineers, operators, leaders, and problem-solvers. These conversations are about how decisions get made, what's changing, and what people are learning in real time. The goal is simple, share ideas that stick, and help move the industry forward in a way that lasts.
