Duties & Job Description for Advanced Auto Techs in Centralia

What’s it like being an auto technician in Centralia? As an advanced technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care, working on cars will take up most of your day, from test driving and repairing vehicles to educating non-mechanical clients on mechanical repairs.

Advanced mechanics in Centralia have a number of responsibilities including fixing cars per manufacturer standards by taking care of things like transmission repairs and alignments, as well as inspections and brake checks. Additionally, advanced technicians mentor their less experienced teammates, assisting them with hands-on tasks such as tire maintenance and part installations.

Required Qualifications for Centralia Advanced Mechanics

Wondering if you qualify for a Centralia advanced technician position with Firestone Complete Auto Care? You must have five or more years of experience working on cars and proof of completion of a Vocational-Technical program in the automotive field. Having a valid driver’s license at all times, combined with the ability to perform road tests on customer vehicles is a must-have. You should also have good writing, math, reading, and communication skills. An ideal candidate is also A.S.E. certified in at least five of A1-A8 (L1 counts toward the five, too).
