You'll note that our Patriot Subaru Mission Statement has nothing to do with selling cars. We are in the people business, not the car business. If we take care of each customer on a personal level, the numbers will follow. So when we hire, we're seeking people who know how to talk with people, not at them. So yes, when we are hiring people to work in sales, we are eager to talk with people who have experience, but equally interested to talk to people who have never sold, but have a background in direct customer service. We put a lot into training, and we often like those who have no pre-conceived motions.
There is indeed something special about working at Patriot Subaru in Saco, ME. Right here at home, we have "Maine's Best Places To Work" Awards nine
times between 2013-2022. In so doing, four times Patriot has earned the
#1 Medium Size Business category.
Our store has been recognized by Automotive News' as one of the Top 100 "Best Dealerships To Work For", on eight different occasions. Unprecedented in the industry. The store has received recognition for diversity and for the number of millennials on the team.
How does this happen? It starts with smart hiring, but it comes down to the individuals who come to work every day with a great attitude and a desire to make a positive impact. Following our Mission Statement is at the core. "To Serve - Our customers, our families, our community, and each other."
