Under The Hood
Is the shop heated? Air conditioned?
We use an Energy Logic waste oil heater as the primary with a diesel heater as a back up. There is currently no A/C, we rented Portacools for the summer. The longer term plan is to be in our own building in the next 18 to 24 months with climate control.
What is the size of the team I’d be working with?
We currently employee 4 techs, an apprentice and two service advisors.
What are the shop hours and what are the shift timeframes?
8:00am.-5:30pm. Monday-Friday NO WEEKENDS!!!!
What tools does the shop provide that are available for all technicians to use?
Multiple diagnostic tools such as Autologic Drive Pro, Autologic Blue box, Autoland ISCAN3, Autel Maxisys, Laptops with factory software. Multiple specialty tools, to many to name.

What is your policy on side work?
Side work is permitted as long as it is not taking work from the shop, a family member or close friend.
Do you offer any skills training or continuing education opportunities?
Yes, through WorldPac, CarQuest. SSF and ATI
Can you describe opportunities for career growth at your business?
Obviously it is to our advantage for you to grow and improve. Our goal is to promote from within for future needs such as service advisors or managers. We are planning for steady and rapid growth over the next few years. If industry predictions are true that will likely continue for at least the next decade and beyond.
Can you describe your performance review process?
Performance reviews are part of regular one on one meetings for each individual with shop meetings/lunches to discuss where we are and where we are going.
What type of safety training is required?
Safety training require is based off of each individuals needs
Can you describe how Techs work with and mentor younger techs?
We are currently enrolled in a tech mentoring program, but feel it is somewhat short of our expectations and are looking into a more robust program.
How does your shop get involved with the local community?
Usually through sponsorship of programs at schools and churches
Do you do anything with local high schools or tech schools to encourage more students to enter the profession?
Our involvement has been minimal so far. We have reached out to instructors at high schools in our area. So only Round Rock H.S. has been receptive.
Do you phone screen applicants before doing in-person interviews?
Yes, see above.
What do your in-person interviews entail?
We like to take time to get to know each other, this includes meeting the whole team. We will start with a few questions to facilitate that. The communication will flow both ways since we want you to have any questions you have answered. Afterward you will be introduced to each team member and be free to talk with anyone you wish to. Remember for our team to preform at the top we all have to want to work together and that starts with relationship.
Do you perform background checks, drug screening, or personality tests before hiring an applicant?
You will be required to take a personality test since that helps us in determining who you will enjoy working next to. As long as you can provide 3 solid references a background check will not be done and if any of us get the impression you may be addicted to drugs it will likely be a non starter.
Do you perform a skill assessment before hiring an applicant? If yes, what does it entail?
No we rely on your word and that of your references.
After an in-person interview, approximately how long should I expect to wait for a rejection or an offer?
Usually within 24 hours unless there is a reference we have not heard back from.
Approximately how long does the full hiring process take from submitting the application to the time of the hiring decision?
This is very dependent on available time, yours and ours. Ideal conditions would be 3 to 5 days.
