Entry Level Automotive Technician
MSX International, Overland Park, KS, United States
We are actively seeking motivated individuals who want to build a career as automotive technicians. Our Apprentice Technician Program helps connect candidates with Car retailers that are hiring in locations across the country, based on where you live and your proximity to participating retailers.
If selected by a Car retailer, you would become an employee of that retailer and begin your journey with a 4–12-week internship. High-performing candidates may then be enrolled in an intensive 7-week immersion training program designed to prepare you for
G1 certification . Through hands‑on experience, expert mentorship, and immersive training, you will gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to begin a successful career.
If you are eager to learn, grow, and take the first step toward becoming a Car certified technician, we encourage you to apply.
