Intro: Hello, I'm Alex Toll with metalcoffeeshop.com and I'm here with Vicky. Vicky, please introduce yourself.

Vicky Smith: Hi, I am Vicky Smith. I'm the corporate HR director for S-5.

Alex Toll: Awesome. And our October question is, what are you seeing for good recruitment strategies for the metal industry?

Vicky Smith: What I'm finding to be the most important for recruitment right now is to be very upfront about your compensation plan and your benefit offering. Benefits is very much important to today's workforce and what they're looking for. So, having a good compensation package, including with the benefits, is the way to go.

Alex Toll: Amazing. Yeah. That's so important. Well, thank you so much, Vicky, for answering the October Metal Coffee Shop influencer question and we'll catch you guys all next month.

Outro: Thank you, Alex.
