Aerotek is hiring: Production Assistant in Saint Paul
Aerotek, Saint Paul, MN, United States, 55145
**Hiring Production Assistants!**
**$18-20**
**Job Description**
This individual will be in charge of unpackaging parts (orders can range from 2-2,000+ since they're a job shop). After unpacking the parts, they will then be responsible for racking them. Racking the fixtures is similar to hanging ornaments on a tree - they will pinch the spring clip (which is a heavy-duty metal clip) to hang the fixture on the rack. The clip itself isn't physically heavy, but it is metal, and a strong grip is required to pinch the spring clips together and release the chop to hang the components. This individual needs to have good grip strength to ensure the clip does not scratch the fixture they are racking. This role may involve racking for up to 10 hours a day. The candidate should be a self-motivated individual looking for a long-term opportunity to grow with the company.
Training will be provided by a full-time employee.
