Student Technician Recruitment
Careers in Automotive Technology“A career in the automotive industry gives the students the opportunity to work with the latest technology and take home a great paycheck,” said John Patterson, Orange County Automobile Dealers Association and owner of Tustin Mazda and OC Hyundai. “I applaud these outstanding students and my fellow dealers here in Orange County, who despite trying economic times enthusiastically support these students and our community in so many ways.” The U.S. Department of Labor reports that job opportunities in this occupation are “very good” for people who have a strong technical background and training. The industry is expected to add 11,000 jobs annually through 2016, with automotive technicians making upwards of $100,000 annually. |
