Asked me questions, but once entering the shop realized I was asked all the wrong questions. I was told I would basically be doing live tech work, on second day of working asked to diagnose a car for intermittent auto on/off system failure.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What experience as a mechanic did I have. Did I have my own tools, what was my availability. When could I start and did I think I could upscale services in cars very well.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Pep Boys (Charleston, SC) in Apr 2015
Interview
I walked in he asked about my experience and if I had tools and told me I would need to do another interview with someone higher up and their master tech. I was in there for a total of 5 mins.
Standard interview. They tested me in different parts. It was fairly standard. They asked me about changing out different engine parts and oil changes and things like that. I could do all those things.
It takes like 2 weeks to get in then another 2 weeks to hear if you got the job and then if you're lucky you get a job and then what your start date is.
