Top Shop Challenge: Many employees will follow or interact with a shop/dealer for a while before applying for a job. Share with us any examples of employees who took a while to see how awesome you are, or ones that left only to come back.
Our goal as an employer is to retain our people. On occasion we lose may lose one, and we understand that employees have choices, but we try hard to bring them back! With new training options, good pay and benefits and a variety of work. Our diesel mechanics and trailer technicians work with a variety of vehicles and equipment, from heavy-duty trucks and buses to construction equipment and agricultural machinery, providing a diverse and interesting work environment.

What are a couple of things you'd like to highlight that happened last month?
It was a short month but a good month! Yahir, one of our Honda express technicians, started his mentorship program with Louis, one of our main line technicians. Louis works fast and produces a lot of hours for the shop, so Yahir is trying to keep up with him :-) Congrats, Yahir! On the Toyota side, we had some movement! Micah has been a valet with us for over a year and has been expressing interest in moving into an express advisor position for months now... a spot finally opened up and he has started his training! We also brought back a former employee, Mike, to start training as an express advisor as well. Why only have 2 new advisors when we could have 3, you ask? Well, we decided to add a 3rd! Daniel, who is new to our family, started training as well. They all started training at the same time, and they are already forming a good bond with their team of technicians! Exciting! Two of our express advisors are moving up to main shop advisor roles as well! Congrats to Mikey, who started with us as a valet and has finally reached his goal as a main shop advisor. Matt has been with us for less than a year, but he's shown great growth and he is ready for the next challenge as well. They are helping train the new express advisors before they move fully into the main shop.

Last week Toyota of Corvallis got the special honor of being invited to the Knife River Job Fair in Albany Oregon. We got to show off a Brand New 2023 Tundra thanks to our wonderful sales department! The 8th graders loved sitting in the driver's seat and checking out all the complex electronics modern technicians have to diagnosis.

We hire and retain women associates by giving them every opportunity for success as we give to men. Being a woman in this industry for 20+ years, I have had negative experiences with customers both men and women who make an assumption that we don’t know as much as men, but have never felt that from Broadway. Broadway goes above and beyond to ensure every employee has equal rights and opportunities. Julie Stanzel has been employed with Broadway as a Collision Technician for over 3 years. I never assume she isn’t capable of any repair that comes into the shop. By giving equal opportunities, she realizes how much we value her and this helps us to retain her as an employee. The sky is the limit!
