Summary: Forest Automotive is seeking a full-time auto technician, open to training an entry-level candidate who wants to master the trade. Highlights: 1. Opportunity to learn the auto repair trade through continuous training 2. Work with talented A and B technicians who started as entry level 3. Fair treatment and dignity of interesting, difficult work Forest Automotive is looking to add a full-time auto technician, and we are open to training the right person. Like a formal apprenticeship, a new hire will start as an entry level tech, while learning the skills needed to master the trade. Unlike most other shops, our system is based on training new techs continuously, one by one, over time. Our current staff is filled with talented A and B technicians, who all started with us as entry level techs. Once the apprentice masters the basic tasks of our business (oil changes, tire service, NYS inspections), we gradually introduce increasingly complex repair and service writing skills. As the apprentice gains skill and becomes more productive, we will pay them more, and give them more responsibility. Although professional experience isn't required, an ideal candidate will have extensive experience fixing cars, if only as a hobby. You don't need to be an established professional mechanic yet, but you will need some basic mechanical skills and experience. About Forest Auto: We treat everyone fairly and still make money. This is an urban shop, so space is tight, and our customers are diverse. We've worked hard to make our business a well-oiled machine, so we are looking for someone who can mesh with our system and contribute in earnest. In exchange, you'll be paid fairly, and offered the dignity of work both interesting and difficult. We offer health insurance, guaranteed weekly pay (no flat rate here), three weeks paid vacation, and paid holidays. This is an opportunity to learn the trade in a well-run business with an excellent reputation. Our shop is clean, safe, and air conditioned; attitude more punk rock than NASCAR, equipment well maintained and modern. Candidates should respond via email with a resume and a cover letter (written without AI assistance) explaining your desire to become a mechanic, and to work for Forest Auto. No phone calls please.
