Do you think I have a chance at getting a job as a car detailer?

Category: Other

ok thenok then


So I'm 17, and love cars, especially clean ones. I wash my car like every weekend, and do a hell of a job, I also participate with every HS car wash. Like do you think I can get a chance at working at say a Mercedes, BMW dealer for detailing? or some independent one? BTW how much is the pay if I do get the job?

I can speak for Illinois only- In general, legal insurable age is 18. You must have a CLEAN drivers license and good background check. You will also be asked for your SS Card by any reputable dealer. Generally, Detailer/Porter in an "Entry Level Position", you can expect to start at $8.50-11.00/hr. "Detailing" experience is GAINED OVER TIME and can pay perhaps, $25/hr or on a "per unit" basis. It can be hard work (hot in summer, cold in winter [landscape/snow removal] and has some "tough shifts"). It is, however, often a good "stepping stone" in the automotive field. Good Luck.
