I applied in-person. I interviewed at Davidson Auto Group (Watertown, NY) in Aug 2013
Interview
I was asked the usual questions.... How long have you been a mechanic, do you have your own tools, reliable transportation, do you mind working in a fast paced environment? The interview lasted about 30 minutes and at the end of it I was told that I would be hired pending the outcome of my background check. Two days later, I received a call that I could start that Monday. Monday came and it was a lot of paperwork. But I was working on cars that afternoon.
