Coming from Education to SMART Repairer – Here’s what you need to know

Leaving education can be a pretty daunting prospect. Having to enter the job market for the first time, and compete against hundreds of other applicants, many with vastly more job experience and drastically more life experience, it can be overwhelming for many, even those with excellent qualifications. But it can also be a fantastic opportunity to enter a new job, eager to learn and demonstrate the skills you’ve spent years cultivating as part of your education.

Revive! are constantly on the lookout for applicants at any stage of their career, be it straight out of college education or with 20 years’ experience behind you. Taking on a role as a mobile SMART technician can offer a variety of benefits over being trapped in a body shop, day in, day out. For example, you have the opportunity to get face to face with customers and provide the excellent service Revive! is known for. You will also be able to experience the broad variety of jobs and damage that occur regularly including bumper scuffs, door dings and alloy wheel damage.

But there will always be areas to learn, not only about the business but about vehicle repairs as a whole.
