“Working at the dealership was great, but not knowing how to break out of the field and get behind the scenes at something bigger was difficult until I was contacted by Advantage Technical and found out about all the opportunities that were there,” Nedwick said. 

Nedwick joined Advantage Technical in 2015 and began supporting Ford Motor Company on its Interior/Exterior Prior Approval team. The opportunity introduced him to a different side of the automotive industry, working with engineers, marketing teams and others across the organization while building new technical expertise. 

When his position was eliminated during a restructuring in 2021, Nedwick needed to find a new path. Advantage Technical helped him identify another opportunity that matched his experience while giving him the chance to develop an entirely new skill set.  

“Advantage Technical worked tirelessly to find additional opportunities in the company that fit my skillset,” Nedwick said. 

That next opportunity led Nedwick into Ford’s mobile service operations, where his responsibilities and expertise continued to grow. His leaders describe him as detail-oriented, proactive and dependable, with a willingness to take ownership of problems and see them through.  

“Evan’s story shows what staffing can be at its best,” said Stacey Lane, CEO of Staffmark Group. “This isn’t one job or one placement. It’s a partnership that has spanned more than a decade, through new opportunities, a restructuring, new skills and continued growth. Evan brought the talent, curiosity and drive to keep growing, and we’re incredibly proud that Advantage Technical has been there to help him build a career and make such a meaningful impact at Ford.” 

The National Staffing Employee of the Year program recognizes outstanding temporary and contract employees across the country, with All-Stars selected to represent major sectors of the staffing industry. In 2025, U.S. staffing companies employed 9.5 million temporary and contract workers. 

Nedwick will be recognized alongside other National Staffing Employee of the Year honorees at ASA’s Staffing World convention and expo, Oct. 12–14 in Denver.
