Hard pass on “competitive” with a recruiter unless they share a range; for a tool room in southern IN I’d want $30–35/hr, real toolroom work (grinders, EDM, one-off fixtures), and 1st shift. North Vernon’s doable if there’s OT and solid benefits, otherwise not worth the drive.

Maybe, but not without a pay range and whether it’s direct hire. If it’s true toolroom work (grinding, EDM, tight tolerances) at around $28–35/hr with OT and day shift, I’d look; if it’s maintenance-lite with vague “competitive” pay, I’m out.
