Kia

Automotive Service Technician

Luther Kia of Inver Grove in Inver Grove, MN, is seeking Military Veterans with mechanical experience who are interested in beginning a rewarding career as an Automotive Service Technician.

This position is part of the Kia Veterans Technician Apprenticeship Program (VTAP), a structured apprenticeship program created by Kia America to help Military Veterans transition into the automotive industry.
