Automotive Technician and Mechanic Recruiting for Dealerships and Repair Shops
Finding skilled automotive technicians is one of the biggest challenges dealerships and repair shops face today. Good techs are already working, and most are not scrolling job boards looking for their next move.
We help dealerships and automotive repair shops recruit experienced technicians and mechanics faster, without waiting weeks for applicants or sorting through unqualified resumes.
Hiring Qualified Automotive Technicians Is Harder Than Ever
The technician shortage is real, and it affects every part of your business. When bays sit empty, productivity drops and pressure builds on your existing team.
The Nationwide Mechanic Shortage
Across the country, there are more open technician jobs than available techs to fill them. Dealerships and repair shops are competing for the same limited talent.
Posting a job and hoping the right mechanic applies is no longer enough. The best technicians are usually already employed and need to be recruited directly.
Open Bays Cost Time and Revenue
Every open bay means:
-
Lost labor hours
-
Slower repair times
-
Increased stress on your current technicians
Over time, this leads to burnout, turnover, and even more hiring problems.
Automotive Mechanic Recruiting Built for Real-World Hiring
We do more than post jobs and wait. Our team actively recruits automotive professionals who are already working in the industry.
Active Recruiting for Experienced Technicians
We do not rely on job boards or passive applicants. Our team actively recruits automotive technicians who are already working in the industry.
This means:
-
Reaching techs who are not actively applying
-

Pre-Screened Mechanics Who Fit Your Shop

-
Experience level and skill set
