Richmond, VA Advanced Mechanic Job Description

What’s it like being an auto technician in Richmond? As an advanced technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care, your days will be full of all things car-related, from test driving and repairing vehicles to explaining technical repairs to non-mechanical clients.

Advanced auto technician job responsibilities include diagnosing and repairing vehicles to specifications by completing services such as diagnostics and exhaust repairs, as well as brake and hydraulic fixes. Additionally, advanced technicians mentor their less experienced teammates, overseeing them as they perform everyday services like battery checks and oil changes.

Landing an Advanced Auto Tech Job in Richmond, VA

Wondering how to make your Richmond advanced auto technician job application stand out? You must have five or more years of experience working on cars and hold proof of completion of a Vocational-Technical program in the mechanical field. A valid driver’s license combined with the ability to drive customer and company cars is a must-have. You’ll also need adequate math, reading, writing, 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). If you’re not, you’ll have up to two years from when you join the team to get adequately certified. If Richmond, VA requires additional licenses, you must also obtain and maintain those. Lastly, you should be able (and patient enough) to train apprentice mechanics and advise non-technical customers about automotive diagnostics and complex services.
