Many companies are still facing bottlenecks in the recruitment of young talent. The VDMA is therefore launching the "Weeks of Technology" together with its members and universities.
Young people in transition are an often overlooked but potentially valuable target group - also for the mechanical and plant engineering sector.
87 percent of mechanical engineering apprentices are satisfied or even very satisfied with their apprenticeship. This is the result of a recent VDMA survey.
DescriptionIf done well and in an interesting way, addressing parents in a targeted manner can make an important contribution to securing the next generation of skilled workers in the long term.
Every year, around 250,000 young people try to find their way into vocational training after leaving school with the help of the transition area. There is a wide range of programs to choose from, but too often companies and young people do not find a match.
Many young people in the transition period between school and work are suitable for training. Targeted support could attract them to careers in mechanical engineering.
Demographic change, a shortage of skilled workers, unfilled training positions - these are often the predominant issues in Germany when it comes to recruitment. But what is it like in other countries? We asked around locally.
Only half of all mechanical engineering companies are currently able to fill all apprenticeship positions. Many companies would like to train more people, but there is a lack of qualified applicants.
The start of the new apprenticeship year has been bumpy for many East German mechanical engineering companies. Half of the companies offering training have not yet been able to fill all commercial or technical apprenticeships.
Due to the authentic approach, many companies rely on their own trainees to reach pupils when recruiting young talent. The VDMA offers the right virtual training for your technical trainees.
