About EGN Technical

EGN Technical Resources helps automation manufacturers, distributors, system integrators, and OEMs find and secure the industrial automation and controls talent they can't find anywhere else, including (read: especially) the top passive candidates who aren't on job boards.

The problem

Why Traditional Industrial Automation Recruiting Falls Short

If you're hiring controls engineers, automation technicians, or industrial sales talent, you've probably run into this. And it's not your process that's broken, we need to pay attention to the recruiting model.

Stacks of unqualified resumes. Too many candidates who look the same on paper, none of them the right fit.

The best candidates are already gone. Top industrial automation talent is off the market fast, often before a resume even reaches your desk.

Losing candidates to counteroffers at the last minute. Offers made, then candidates get cold feet, and the role stays open.

No one owns the outcome. Juggling multiple recruiters means no single person is accountable for actually closing the search.
