Hireology, the applicant tracking system (ATS) trusted by 1 in 4 automotive dealerships in the U.S., announced today a new partnership with WrenchWay, the platform designed to connect technicians, service advisors, students, and instructors with top shops. The goal of the partnership is to help dealerships combat today’s technician talent shortage through technology and education.
Hiring technicians today has never been more challenging as Baby Boomers age out of the industry and enrollment in tech schools continues to drop. In fact, the TechForce Foundation estimates that the industry will need roughly 1 million new technicians to meet demand in the next five years. Together, Hireology and WrenchWay will offer industry-specific content, educational workshops, and technology designed to help dealers find creative and effective ways to connect with top automotive talent.
