SUMMARY:
I have 20 years experience working in the Automotive Industry in gas stations, independent shops and car dealerships. I am interested in changing my career direction away from the "hands-on" aspect of being a mechanic and moving towards a Parts Counterperson or a Service Advisor.
OBJECTIVE:
To obtain a position applying my knowledge of automotive parts, tools and their function, and to evaluate the problem(s) a car has and estimate the time and cost of repair. I would also like to aide customers with their automobile problems and advise them as to what they would need to have a safe, reliable car.
