Top 10 States for Manufacturing Jobs

Industry on the rebound after several years of decline

TRUMBULL, Conn., July 24, 2012 — (PRNewswire) — �America's manufacturing industry has been hit hard over the last few years, a result of the economic recession and an increase in the outsourcing of these types of jobs. However, there are still hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs available throughout the nation, and many top employers are having trouble finding skilled workers to fill those positions.

According to the job site AmericanMFGjobs.com, some of the most popular manufacturing jobs available are for assemblers, engineers, CNC specialists and managers.

Certain states are hiring more manufacturing employees than others. Aside from the largest states, those in the Midwest that are historically known as manufacturing hubs are looking to rebuild that reputation.

The top 10 states for manufacturing jobs on AmericanMFGjobs.com include:

  1. California - 42,377
  2. Texas - 32,386
  3. Illinois - 17,290

  7. Michigan - 12,381
  8. Florida - 12,167
  9. Washington - 11,736
