Re: Job Advice?

The way things are now days, I would go for the bankteller job.  Does it offer any benefits?

what kind of schooling do you have OP?  that is, if you dont mind me asking.

the point that im trying to make is although i dont know what your goal is, teh bank teller position can be your doorway to get into banking and finance.   unless your goal is to get into sales, then obviously the dealership is probably a better idea.

 

is this long or short term?

 

i say bankteller

Re: Job Advice?

Selling cars is a short term job so if your looking to improve your people skills in 3-6 months then I would take a chance on selling cars. I sold cars for a couple of months and it really helped my people skills as you will talk to people of all works of life. One more thing they will tell you that you can make tons of money its all a lie most cars are sold at or below invoice and the wealthier the surrounding demographic the less profit per vehicle ( the buyer is more informed about pricing, rebates, better credit etc ) .
