We also offer bonuses, awards, and a company car with a 15-sale average. On top of that, if our commission structure doesn't perform at a desirable income, we have guarantees in place to give any new applicant peace of mind.

• Training:   For the first time we are bringing our exclusive 8-week workshop to Alexandria.  We are the only dealership in town with an in-house talent development department.  We offer 8 weeks of initial & orientation classes with continued ongoing training.  Because this position is in Alexandria, you will have the chance to attend the workshop in Lafayette for the first 3 days, hotel provided.  From there you will attend online from your office in Alexandria and there will be weekly in-person visits from your trainer.

WHO ARE WE?
We are Giles Automotive Group.  We pride ourselves in living out our mission to be a “vehicle" that improves the lives of our employees, our customers, and our community.  Our mission is more than a cute phrase or something we hang on our wall.  The Giles Mission is central to how we help you advance, not just in your career, but as a person.  We are interested in discovering your strengths and helping you leverage them to reach your personal and professional goals.  Our mission impacts the way we help our clients, as we like to say we don't "sell" cars, we help people buy cars.  And finally, our mission is reflected in our contribution to the local community.  Please visit gilesgivesback.com to see some of our primary causes.  Let's just say our culture is positive and progressive, especially for a car dealership.  Now, none of that is true at our new location in Alexandria.  Why?  Because culture is a group of people and we are working towards building a group of people that have the capability to carry out our mission.  We are hoping it's you!  This will take time, but what a cool opportunity to be a part of building something special.
