Forklift operators are an important part of a smooth-running warehouse.
While many forklift jobs require experience and certifications, there are sometimes entry level positions available when searching for “forklift jobs near me”.
Once you have the experience you can use it as a stepping stone to a career as a forklift operator.
As you build more skills and learn to operate more complicated types of forklift machinery, the more money you can potentially make when searching for forklift jobs near me.
Hire Dynamics is part of the nation’s largest industrial staffing company, and we have hundreds of open forklift job positions hiring now. So, we know a thing or two about what it takes to get hired when searching for the best forklift jobs near me.
We’ve Compiled the Top Five FAQ’s to Help Your Search for Forklift Jobs Near Me
You don’t always need experience to get hired for a forklift job, but that’s the exception more than the rule. It’s important to do a thorough online search for “forklift jobs near me” and then read the details of each job description for forklift jobs near me because every employer has slightly different requirements for experience and education when hiring.
While there are forklift jobs that don’t require any educational achievements, most prefer you at least have a GED. At a minimum most companies hiring for forklift operators require you be at least 18 years old, be able to do basic math calculations, and be available to work a variety of shifts (including days, nights, weekends and sometimes holidays).
When searching for forklift jobs near me, also keep in mind that in addition to driving, you’ll be using physical and mental skills as well. Like most warehouse jobs, forklift operators are typically expected to be able to lift up to 50 lbs or more, walk and stand for extended periods, be physically agile (reach, bend, climb, push, pull, twist, squat and kneel as needed), communicate well (in writing and verbally) and have a proven track record of being able to follow instructions and work on a team.
Most forklift jobs do require more specific experience, and often a Forklift Operator Certification. The more complex and busy a warehouse, and the more sophisticated the machinery and equipment used in that warehouse, the more requirements must be met by candidates searching for forklift jobs near them. Of course, the more experience you have the higher your wage potential.
Examples of the types of experience some employers require when hiring forklift drivers:
Being a forklift operator can be a fulfilling job, and is considered one of the lower stress jobs out there. Every day is different, but also predictable because warehouses can be dangerous places and all employees, including forklift operators, are required to adhere to strict policies, routines and procedures to ensure a safe workplace.
If you’ve been searching for a forklift job near me, and are worried that operating a forklift all day may be boring, never fear. Forklift drivers don’t just drive. They typically solve simple math (with and without a calculator) throughout the day, use simple computer software and scanning tools, communicate with other members of their team, and get quite a bit of physical activity in each day. Often, the demands of a forklift job include lifting, reaching, pushing and pulling in an environment that is not always climate controlled.
On a typical day, forklift operators:
It’s important to know what employers call someone who operators a forklift, as it will help you sift through job listings during your search for forklift jobs near me.
Common titles include: Forklift Operator, Forklift Driver, Materials Handler, Machine Operator. Often the job title will combine words like Warehouse Associate/Forklift.
Again, we can’t stress enough the importance of thoroughly reading every job description you find, when searching for forklift jobs near me, to ensure you are applying to the forklift jobs that best match your skills and experience.
Some employers hiring for forklift jobs in your area may offer training. Many new forklift operators aren’t offered formal training and instead get their training and experience on the job. You can earn an official forklift operator certification by taking an OSHA-approved forklift certification course (offered both in-person and online).
Sometimes people attend a trade school prior to launching their job search, which includes classroom time, written testing and hands-on training.
While getting a forklift certification on your own is not necessary to find a forklift job, it certainly could help people who have no forklift experience when they begin searching for “forklift jobs near me”. What’s more – it shows great initiative to your potential employer!
At Hire Dynamics, we require the companies we work with to offer safety programs and training. What’s more, we offer FREE, online skills training to advance in your forklift job. That’s why 8 out of 10 of job candidates who work with Hire Dynamics say we are a company you can trust for finding forklift jobs near you.
