The problem

Where manufacturing hiring actually breaks

Manufacturing hiring decisions get made fast, at volume, by people whose real job is running a plant. Without structure, the bar moves every time.

Certifications and safety records buried in PDFs

Forklift certs, welding quals, OSHA training. The details that matter most are the hardest to spot when skimming a stack of resumes.

Structured extraction, explicit scoring

Lehire structures every resume and scores it against role criteria, surfacing certifications, machine experience, and tenure patterns with reasoning attached.

Each plant hires to its own standard

Site A’s supervisor screens for experience, Site B’s for attitude. Same role, different bars, uneven quality and safety exposure.

One rubric across every site

The role rubric is defined once and applied everywhere. Every site screens, interviews, and decides on the same criteria.

Constant turnover, constant restarting

Backfilling the same roles month after month, and every search starts from an empty pile.

A talent pool that compounds

Every applicant you have ever screened is searchable and re scoreable. Backfills start from ranked, pre evaluated candidates instead of zero.

How it works

Decision intelligence for manufacturing, in three moves

01

Define the role bar

Set explicit criteria per role: certifications required, machine experience, shift availability, safety record signals.

02

Score applicants in bulk

Up to 200 resumes per batch, each evaluated against the rubric in minutes. The shortlist comes ranked with reasoning.

03

Decide and remember

Supervisor interviews land in structured scorecards. Decisions are ranked, documented, and remembered for the next backfill.

Criteria based screening

Certifications, machine experience, and tenure scored explicitly against what the role actually requires.

Bulk evaluation

Hundreds of applicants processed in minutes with a real evaluation behind every score.

Supervisor scorecards

Simple structured criteria for floor interviews, consistent across shifts and sites.

Backfill memory

Past applicants resurface ranked when the same role reopens. Turnover stops resetting your pipeline.

Decision Engine

One ranked shortlist per requisition, built the same way at every plant.

A documented process

Every score and decision keeps its rationale, which matters when hiring practices get questioned.

Manufacturing teams ask us

Our hiring managers are plant supervisors, not recruiters. Is this usable?+

Yes. Supervisors see a ranked list with plain reasoning and complete simple scorecards. Setup and rubric design can sit with HR or a single admin.

Can it screen for specific certifications?+

Yes. Make a certification a rubric criterion and every resume is checked and scored against it, with what was found quoted in the reasoning.

Does it integrate with our HRIS or ATS?+

Enterprise includes ATS and custom integrations. Premium works standalone with CSV export.

How do public apply links work for plant roles?+

Every opening gets a shareable apply link. Post it on boards, QR codes in the break room, or referral texts. Applicants flow straight into the ranked pool.
