Questions about Manufacturing work

Some operative roles are open without it. Machine operation and quality roles usually expect prior experience.
Will I be working nights?
Many plants run shifts that include nights. The pattern is confirmed before you accept a placement.
Is a forklift licence useful?

Generally yes, though individual plants have busier periods tied to their own customers.
