Working in a car dealership gives you the opportunity to touch the world of freedom and speed. The high workload and hassle are compensated by high incomes. And motivated people can get a job in a car dealership, and not just a select few.
Instructions
Step 1
Working in a car dealership attracts many young men and women with high income, prestige and the opportunity to take advantage of preferential terms for buying a car. But behind the shiny doors of the show-room there is a lot of hard work. Working with people is always characterized by a heightened degree of responsibility. Every buyer in a car dealership, even if he buys a Lada Kalina in the minimum configuration, considers himself right and requires personal attention and respect. There is logic in this: a person came to spend a large amount of money and requires an appropriate attitude towards himself. And there are at least 300-500 such clients per month. And they are all different, and they all want the best car at the lowest price and tons of gifts. And the sales manager must provide them with all this so that the buyer does not understand where they were deceived.
Step 2
Requirements for sales managers are strict. The candidate must have a presentable appearance, well-groomed appearance, and the absence of speech defects. The manager must own a set of office programs, 1C accounting, special internal programs. Knowledge of foreign languages will be needed when communicating with foreign branches of auto concerns. There must be a high speed of printing, telephone etiquette, perfect knowledge of the technical characteristics of the cars being sold. The salesperson must be kind of a psychologist. He must guess the wishes of the client or unobtrusively transfer the attention of the buyer from one car brand to another. And everything is possible with excellent communication skills.
Step 3
You can get to a car dealership even without work experience in your specialty. If you have already tried yourself in sales, you can count on the desired place. Graduates of technical universities in the automotive field are also in demand in car dealerships. To begin with, you will be assigned to an experienced manager and a small salary will be made. All managers' income is based solely on the percentage of sales. The salary there is purely symbolic.
Step 4
There are many positions in the car dealership that do not require special training. For girls there are places in the registration department, secretariat, at the reception. The technical center recruits locksmiths, electricians, technicians. For such work, the main thing is to have work experience. A trial period is set for absolutely all positions.
Step 5
On the websites of major car dealerships there is a vacancy section where you can see the positions open to applicants. There you can also fill out a resume in a specific form. If you have not been called back within 2 weeks, do not be too lazy to call the HR department yourself and find out the results. There is such a turnover in the salons that the personnel department does not bother itself in an active search.
Step 6
The most effective way would be to talk directly in the salon with the head of the sales department (SOP). You can immediately demonstrate your skills in action. If you want to get a job in a technical center, then you need a production manager.
Step 7
Newly opening salons often hang a banner on their future stores with information about the search for employees. You can leave your application at the specified phone number. But keep in mind that the opening of the salon may take several months.
