A recent thread on here and a friend attending has spurred my intrest in MMI. I have been planning to go back to school again anyway, but just trying to decide on what i want to be when I grow up.
But anyway my questions are:
1. Does graduating from MMI hold any weight with a hiring H-D dealership or independants? Will the program get you in the door or is it more a matter of experince.
2. How hard is it to get a job as a H-D tech? Are there lots of dealers looking or do you have to wait for someone to die. They are always a week or more behind so I am assuming there is atleast some shortage.
3. Also are they cool places to work, i am sure this is always different. But most industries stick together...some are alot more stuffy then others.
4. Is there some decent money in it, I am sure entry level sucks it always does, but what can be expected after a few years.
I am asking here because I have taken quite a bit of private training and the training companys have a bad habit of telling you exactly what you want to hear. Intrested in this because I have always heard, if you enjoy what you do you will never work a day in your life. So we shall see.
