damb looks like i gotta score this job then
well currently I'm still staying with my folks and all I worry about is my own food phone bill and stuff like that. I guess it's ideal for me currently if I got the job. Just wondering though, how would this job look for someone still in school? Would I still have time to focus on school also?
depends on the managers at the dealership. i was 19 and still in college, so they let me leave for a few hours for class in the middle of the day, but i had to come back to finish the night (i was required to work from 9am-9pm). not all dealerships will be as understanding so you just have to talk to them. full time school + 60 hours of work every week did not end well for me
dang. well i asked how it works on the phone interview and told them my situation. it is for a part-time sales position though but im just not quite sure how the schedule would actually be if i was hired. I told them I was pretty flexible though. did you enjoy your job?depends on the managers at the dealership. i was 19 and still in college, so they let me leave for a few hours for class in the middle of the day, but i had to come back to finish the night (i was required to work from 9am-9pm). not all dealerships will be as understanding so you just have to talk to them. full time school + 60 hours of work every week did not end well for me
dang fam,i loved the money, but hated the job. i worked in a low income area, so i was ripping off single mothers and burying people in debt who had terrible credit. the 3200 i made in an hour was at the expense of a single mother with 2 kids working 2 jobs trying to support a family. we lied to her to put her into a car she couldn't afford. she also came in off some fake sales promotion that the dealership put together to attract more potential customers
being in college with no weekends off (peak times to buy a car) sucked. on my days off, everyone i knew was either working or in school so my social life died off. the dealership did so much shady stuff like doctoring pay stubs, lying to customers, etc. i did cop a lot of my grails in a short period of time tho so that was dope
carmax is unlike traditional dealerships though. i've shopped at carmax and have seen how they work. definitely a better experience than where i've worked
i try to believe that there are some good guy car salesmen out there. eh sometimes you gotta get your hands dirty 
i'm kinda worried about losing a social life but not too worried. on my free time all i do is hang with my girl and play ball but right now i'll be more than happy to take any job that comes my way. i guess i'll just try to make a good impression tomorrow and see what happens. last question though, i'm supposed to go through a simulation car sales tomorrow during the interview. ive chosen the toyota camry. how would i actually initiate a sales pitch. i know first of all i'm supposed to get to know the customer and find out their needs but what would be a good route for making a sale? and here's the pdf form that i'm supposed to take a look at and prepare for tomorrow http://files.carmax.com/mykmxhr/AIMS/candidate_prep_form.pdf
the white people will trust you more if you let that line up get jacked up...
there's def good sales people out there, but it comes down to $$$. the culture of a traditional dealership is not built from ethics. if you want to see how dealerships are run, go check out the movie "Suckers". i watched it after i sold cars, and it's pretty spot ondang fam,i try to believe that there are some good guy car salesmen out there. eh sometimes you gotta get your hands dirty

watching it now. I aint dropping out of school
just apply and give it a shot. i applied for honda before and they called when i was only 19-20 but once i told them i was in school still they told me to come back in the future. i applied for carmax because it was listed as a part time position and got a call back within 48 hours. i'm only 23. it doesn't seem that hard.
and left. 
Thanks and good lookn out. Eh I hope I don't have that steve francis age effect if i get hired..
but say I don't sell a car for a whole month? That means no money for that month? I heard from a friend that works at toyota telling me he still gets paid minimum wage if he doesn't sell for a couple weeks.
