Sales associate

August - September 2020 • Fort Worth, TX

What I liked

I liked the information that i acquired on a daily basis. It helped me understand more about vehicles and how they work internally. I learned about several different parts, how to diagnose them if they appeared faulty, and how to select the appropriate parts for vehicles depending on the situation.

What I wish was different

I don't wish anything was different. The moment I walked in they gave me a quick explanation of how everything worked and threw me in. If I had any difficulties they would help me and explain.

Advice

Working at Autozone is a great way to learn more about automobiles, and how they function.

Marketing Intern

December 2019 • Memphis, TN

What I liked

I've just started my internship at AutoZone so I have yet to have a full conclusion of my experience. So far I'm enjoying how hands-on the work is and it's pretty cool to see how the creative team work their magic.

What I wish was different

I'm not familiar with anything automotive or even the branding so I am struggling to try to help with ideas on advertisements or social media copy.

Advice

It's fast-paced and a lot is expected of you when it comes to growth at the end of the internship.

What I liked

The working culture and professional experience. I loved that my courses often coincided with what my internship was teaching me and vice versa

Nothing! I love/loved everything about my experience.

Take a chance and don’t be scared to experience everything that you can. You are as capable as any other person to take on an internship, and often your excitement and enthusiasm will rub off on your potential employer and you will stand out! Be positive, optimistic, and confident always.

Customer Service Representative

May - August 2019 • Dallas, TX

What I liked

I had the opportunity to help people and teach people new things about their cars. I also loved that I got to help people with a subject I love and find fun. Solving problems and finding parts was a fun part of the job because it was a puzzle with a great outcome. Learning new things from those that are already mechanics was always refreshing.

What I wish was different

Pay and scheduling. I was supposed to be part-time but I would work overtime to cover others schedules

Advice

Don't be scared to ask questions. The managers can be stoic but they are very knowledgable and you can learn a lot from them. Don't let people get to you, they are already upset because they have a car they need to work on. We have to be nicer and take some of that weight off of their shoulders.
