That’s Nice, But What’s the Job?

In long, our Auto Techs are responsible for:

• Working with Reconditioning Center Management to review and inspect inventory based on estimated cost of repairs and/or the overall quality of the vehicle.
• Completing the initial pre-delivery inspection and identifying and completing repairs effectively the first time, to minimize re-work and delays in production.
• Must be proficient with fluid checks, GPS installation, brake and tire repair, and frame damage inspection.
• Work in ways that decrease possibility of injury to yourself or other team members in the shop due to spills or other preventable hazardous conditions.

So What About the Perks? Perks matter.

What Kind of Folks Are We Looking for?

• Industry Experience. Minimum of 2 years on the

  job experience performing light to medium line work.

• Plays well with others. You will be working in a high-functioning team environment. We work together to win together.
• A mind for the details. Okay we know "detail-oriented" is on about every job description - but we really mean it!

• High School Diploma or GED required.
