FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AutoShop Recruiting Launches Subscription-Based Recruiting Program for High-Performing Auto Repair Shops Houston, TX — AutoShop Recruiting, a nationwide automotive recruiting firm specializing exclusively in the auto repair industry, announced today the launch of its new Subscription Recruiting Program, a retained, ongoing hiring solution designed to help high-performing shops solve one of their biggest challenges: consistent access to top-tier talent. After completing 400+ successful placements across North America, AutoShop Recruiting identified a clear industry trend—most successful repair shops are not hiring once, but continuously. Traditional contingency recruiting models often fall short in addressing this reality, leading to reactive hiring, downtime, and increased turnover. The new Subscription Recruiting Program was built to change that. “Our clients kept telling us the same thing,” said Brian Rhodes, Managing Partner of AutoShop Recruiting. “They’re not just filling one role—they’re always recruiting. This program gives shop owners a predictable, strategic recruiting system instead of starting over every time someone leaves.” Under the subscription model, partner shops receive: • A dedicated recruiting team • Continuous candidate sourcing and engagement • Support for multiple roles without restarting searches • Predictable monthly recruiting costs • Reduced hiring risk through proactive talent pipelines Unlike traditional recruiting approaches, AutoShop Recruiting operates inside real, high-performing auto repair environments, giving its team firsthand insight into productivity, culture, compensation structures, and what it takes for a hire to succeed long-term. The firm reports strong early demand for the program and has intentionally limited capacity to maintain quality and results for partner shops. “This is not a replacement for good leadership or culture,” Rhodes added. “It’s a system that supports shops that already care about doing things the right way and want recruiting to become a competitive advantage.” The Subscription Recruiting Program is now available to select independent shops, multi-location groups, and franchise operators across North America.

The company partners with independent repair shops, multi-location groups, and franchise operators to identify, evaluate, and place top-performing technicians, service advisors, and leaders.
