Looking for body / automotive job

Pimpin Dsmstyle · 01-10-2005

Im currently looking to find an autobody job. I have experience working on my own cars, and side jobs with my father. I want to come in at a very basic entry level postition and move up accordingly. I have never been legit with body work. Taping, detail, cleaning, and other prep are what jobs im specifically looking for. I am going to DCTC for autobody collision repair this coming fall. Id prefer to work in a specialty shop but if need be, I would work in a repair shop, big or small. im 18 and out of highschool. *graduated*.
Im sick of my current job being the bitch at a CNC machine shop, I dont want to do this with my life. If anyone has any ideas or job offers, please let me know asap. I have a very good job history and I intend to keep it that way.

Im looking to find an autobody job, but anything automotive would be highly considered. My future will be in the automotive world, and I know that I will be attending school for autobody, but I'm also considering auto mechanics.

Entery level = tire tech at tires plus (assuming you can change and balance tires).

If you are serious about the entry level, go to body shops and see if they are looking for someone to do bitch work.

My friend did that, took out garbage, took damaged parts to dumpsters, cleaned booths, helped who ever needed help, and now he is doing repair for them now that he is done with school.

Just get your foot in the door, and hopefully you will have a position waiting for you when you are ready.
