Best bet is to call a few potential employers and find what they are looking for.
getting a dealer job is no problem...it is going to the Manufacturere(oem) is what i mean. I can roll my toolbox back in and be as good as any guy they have..I know it. The technical side is easy for me, I was always really good at fixing stuff that others could not even begin to comprehend. Where I fell down was in wanting and taking the experience route over school (college) . The manufacturers are looking at hiring only degrees at this point, rather than experience as they used to( honestly I can see both arguements, the naked moldability of a raw degree holder and The seasoned experience of someone who has real experience)
I have a great job now, a company that is REALLY hard to get in and they treat their employees well, I would never consider leaving for less than an oem or a GUBMINT job.
