You don't have to be looking for a job to look for something better.

Maybe you already have work. But if another plant offered better pay, a day shift, a shorter drive, or a line that is not brutal on your body, you'd want to hear about it.

That's what Lokals is for.

What would make switching jobs worth it?

  • Better pay

    What would another plant need to offer per hour to make it worth it?

  • Better shift

    Days instead of nights? Fixed hours instead of rotating? Weekends back?

  • Shorter drive

    How far are you actually willing to commute?

  • Better work

    Assembly instead of the line? Quality or packaging? Something easier on your back?

  • More opportunity

    Full-time hours, forklift certification, a move up to lead hand or a trade.

Switching jobs doesn't have to be dramatic. Sometimes it's:

  • $2 an hour more
  • Days instead of nights
  • Full-time instead of casual
  • Off the line, into assembly
  • Weekends back

Tell us about the work you've actually done.

You don't need the perfect resume. Tell us about the work.

  • What kind of plant, line, or warehouse have you worked in?
  • Assembly, packaging, machine tending, or quality?
  • Do you drive a forklift?
  • Days, nights, or rotating?
  • How long have you been at it?

More than a resume.

  • Experience

    What you've actually done.

  • Evidence

    Skills, credentials, work examples and references when available.

  • Expectations

    Pay, shift, commute and what you want next.

Lokals is designed to help employers understand the person behind the resume before asking for a full interview.

Looking quietly? That's okay.

Creating a Lokals profile doesn't mean you're quitting tomorrow. You decide which opportunities you're interested in and who you want to talk to.

  • Your choice

    You decide whether you're interested.

  • No mass applying

    Your profile isn't an application sent everywhere.

  • No obligation

    Saying no to an opportunity doesn't remove you from Lokals.

Hide from my current employer

Not posted anywhere. Not sent anywhere. You decide who sees it.

Don't want your current employer seeing you? Tell us. They never will.

We're building the local production worker network.

Lokals connects local employers with production workers who are actively looking or simply open to something better. Create your profile once. We contact you when a local job fits what you told us.

Quick answers

The questions we hear most from workers.

Do I need a resume?

No. We'll ask about your actual experience instead.

Does it cost anything?

No. Lokals is free for workers.

Do I have to be unemployed?

No. You can already have a job and simply be open to something better.

Will employers contact me directly?

Not unless you both say yes first. You decide whether you want to talk.

How long does it take?

Most of it is a short conversation with PinPal, in plain words. You can stop and pick it up later.

You do the work. Tell us what would make you switch jobs.

Better pay? Day shift? Shorter drive? Full-time hours?
