What is our process?
All applicants go through an 8 step process before being hired for a sales position at one of the dealerships we represent. This process is to ensure, for both parties involved, that it will be a mutually beneficial relationship. We are not looking for just anyone who wants to sell cars, but rather the right person!

Why this process is so important?
This process is designed to filter out applicants who may not be suitable for work as a professional salesperson in the automobile dealerships our company represents. Our clients are not "typical" dealerships. They have standards and goals that not everyone who may want to sell cars can meet. Not all who apply will be accepted for employment, and the management reserves the right to make the final offer of employment regardless of the steps completed by the applicant. No guarantee of employment is implied by participation in this process.
