Hiring Service Technicians
Interview every technician applicant before another shop calls them.
Good technicians get offers fast. Cenivoz interviews each applicant the day they apply, by phone or web, and asks the diagnostic questions your shop foreman would.
What the interview covers
The questions a good service technician can answer.
A structured interview of about 15 minutes, with follow-up questions on what the applicant has actually done, taken from their resume.
- Diagnostics: no-starts, intermittent faults, reading codes and live data
- Brakes, suspension, electrical and drivability work from their real jobs
- ASE certifications and OEM training
- Scan tools, meters and the tools they own
- Safety and quality habits in the bay
Your must-ask questions
Asked word for word, every time.
Add the questions you always ask in a first call. For yes/no questions, set the answer you're looking for; the interviewer never gives it away.
- "Do you have your own tools?"
- "Are you ASE certified, or working toward it?"
- "Can you work alternating Saturdays?"
