there are 118 locations in Canada so it isnt just one, almost all of them to mechanical repairs.

however, automotive technicians are not in as high a demand as body techs. Partly because no one wants to be a body-tech these days.

I can tell you that seasoned estimators, painters and body techs with good experience who do good work are earning $65,000+ and upwards of $80,000 depending on which location you work at.

all position require you to not be a douche bag.

the rest is up to the people you interview with and the needs of the respective franchisee.

there are literally 50 shops that are submitting their needs or will be there trying to find the guys they need to hire.

There are shops within 30 minutes of every single person on this forum i would imagine.

go and check it out if you are looking. i know that alot of places are looking for preppers and you can make a decent buck if you are not a total fuck up.

they expect to hire fresh guys, but you should know what you are doing.
