Scout Motors is gearing up for a significant leap in its operations by hosting a Virtual Hiring Event slated for October 13 and 14. Aimed at bolstering its Production & Logistics and Quality divisions, the event comes as the company sets its sights on launching vehicle manufacturing by 2027.
The two-day virtual event promises to offer prospective employees an in-depth understanding of Scout’s workplace environment, its strategic objectives, and the specific jobs available. Participants will have the opportunity to engage directly with company executives, attend detailed presentations about various departments, and undertake scheduled interviews with recruitment staff.
The event will kick off with a main session, where Scout Motors will outline its mission and future direction, emphasizing its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and American craftsmanship. This introduction aims to provide a comprehensive view of Scout’s future aspirations and the essential roles that future employees will play.
Following the initial session, attendees will join interest-based breakout groups focusing on either Production & Logistics or Quality. These specialized sessions will spotlight departmental responsibilities and the impact of each role on the company’s larger manufacturing ambitions.
One of the key components of the event will be individual interviews with selected candidates, allowing them to discuss their qualifications and gain a detailed understanding of what working at Scout would entail.
The Production & Logistics division covers Product Planning, Plant Engineering, and Logistics. The team is charged with the strategic planning and operational management needed to support the production of trucks and SUVs, ensuring efficient material movement and work processes prior to the 2027 production launch.
Scout Motors is also actively seeking quality engineers and leaders. The Quality team plays a crucial role in resolving engineering challenges, optimizing production processes, and ensuring each vehicle meets high standards of durability and reliability. This team’s collaboration with designers, suppliers, and manufacturing staff is vital in maintaining the company’s standards of rugged performance and craftsmanship.
Interested applicants are encouraged to signal their intent to join the Virtual Hiring Event by September 28. Given the anticipated high interest, Scout’s Talent Acquisition team will carefully review submissions and issue personalized invitations.
The event is accessible to candidates across the U.S., reflecting Scout Motors’ aim to attract diverse candidates by leveraging a virtual platform.
Scout Motors, which is reviving the historic Scout vehicle legacy, showcased its first prototype in 2024 and plans to commence full-scale production by 2027. Its vehicles, rugged pickup trucks, and SUVs, serve as a modern homage to the mid-20th-century Scout vehicles that once enjoyed widespread popularity.
As the company continues its journey toward production launch, building a skilled workforce now is integral to adhering to the timeline. This virtual hiring event is a pivotal move in that direction, offering applicants a chance not only to secure current positions but also to align with Scout’s long-term vision.
