Since I was a child I always wanted to be someone to work with cars. I wanted to either create them or fix them, and now I really want to be an automotive mechanic. An automotive mechanic performs maintenance work on a vehicle in order to prevent damage from occurring. If damage does occur, you need to diagnose the problem and make repairs on the vehicle. The skills required for this job are pretty simple. You just need to know how to work with the equipment, be fast, accurate and use lots of logic and reason. For most jobs you need at least five years of experience and for the more paying jobs you need up to ten years or more of experience.
The company, Aerotek, wants someone that’s very focused and committed. They want someone to have the same goal they have which is to advocate safety for drivers and pedestrians, including children. They pay $25.000 - $35.00/hour.The job options are either full time,temporary, contract, or project. I picked this job because it’s something I always wanted to do since I was a child. I love taking things apart and fixing them to improve them. This job has everything I like, it allows me to improve and fix the structures of cars. I like that not only can I fix cars, but I can make the driver that much safer because they won’t have any car difficulties that can cause accidents. The thing I least like about this job is that it gets very competitive. It will get harder and harder to keep up through out the years. This is the only downside, I would like to maintain a good reputation and be ahead of the competition. Other than this I would really like to become an Automotive Mechanic.
