Early talent recruiting has been an important part of the company’s efforts to build a pipeline of future employees in the area. Regularly, groups of students ranging from fifth grade to high school tour Gentex’s manufacturing facilities and engage with employees to learn about how STEAM subjects have fascinating real-world applications that lead to fulfilling careers.
For students, a visit to Gentex can often be more than a simple field trip to a production facility. Visits often include interactive and problem-solving elements.
Hamilton Community Schools has partnered with Gentex for several years on a semester-long program, called Project Based Learning.
The recruiting team is active in local high schools to highlight Gentex can offer a great paying job right out of high school, assistance in learning a skilled trade, or be a great first job out of college.
