Careers at DaimlerChrysler

To any car people interested in a sweet job after graduation:

I just finished up at JMU in May[2006]. I had a pretty lame job for the first six months out of school and then a JMU professor I was in contact with hooked me up with DaimlerChrysler. I started with them two weeks ago and our HR guy asked me if I knew car people at JMU looking for a job after graduation. I told him no, but that I would keep an eye out. If anyone is interested please shoot me an email. I feel like I really lucked out finding out with this job and I'd like to hook up a couple JMU kids if possible. Here's a little bit about the job...

They are looking for district managers. There are two types, sales district managers and service district managers. They have a lot of candidates interested in the sales side but they are really looking for car people that can at least sort of talk the talk with service writers and techs in the dealerships. A service district manager oversees the service departments in 15-20 dealerships. They are responsible for helping the dealer principal to market the service center, assist in finding opportunities for profit, and handling some of the major customer relation issues. If you are in to cars, want to stay out of an office, but still want a corporate type job this is probably for you. They are looking for people graduating this spring.

They pay a competitive salary (40-60k) and the give you a cell, laptop, and CAR!!!! They gave me a loaded Charger R/T with the 340hp Hemi and last week they gave me my choice of SRT8's for my next car. They are currently paying for my hotel and food while I'm here in Baltimore training. Dream job.

This email is getting long, but basically I'm trying to hook up JMU people with this job. This is a personal email from me rather than a message from DaimlerChrysler so don't refence it when talking to someone from the company. If you're interested give me a call, IM, email, or Facebook me. At that point I can tell you more about the job, help you out with you resume, and/or get you in touch with our HR guy. They are hiring now so don't wait if you are interested. Let me know. I want to help.
