Our Story

We started AutoXperts after seeing the same story play out in our dealerships over and over again. Good people— From closers, finance managers, service pros— burning out and walking away.

Not because they weren’t capable, but because they had nothing left to give. The hours were too long, the pressure never let up, and life outside the dealership started slipping away.

We knew something had to change.

So we built our way for dealerships to stay staffed without running their people into the ground. AutoXperts steps in with skilled, experienced pros who can cover the floor when someone needs a real break, whether it's for a vacation, family, or just time to reset.

FAQs: Automotive Staffing Solutions

What does AutoXperts do?

We’re mainly a temporary staffing agency for auto dealerships in the Southeast of the United States of America, focused on roles in sales, F&I, and operations. However, we also provide full-time staffing solutions.

Is it worth using a temp agency for dealership staffing?

Yes. It depends on who you work with. If you’re just pulling random resumes from a general HR agency, probably not. But if you're working with a team or a company that actually knows dealerships, especially their pace, their pressure, and their personalities, it can be a total game-changer.

When we were in the fill, the challenge wasn’t always hiring, it was coverage. We’d lose a finance manager for a week, and suddenly the whole rhythm was off. We tried other automotive staffing agencies in the past, but most candidates didn’t understand the sales floor or F&I at all.

That’s why we built AutoXperts the way we did. Fast coverage from people who’ve actually worked in dealerships. It's not just about keeping doors open. It's about keeping gross, morale, and CSI from slipping when someone steps out.

What kinds of roles do you fill?

We focus on automotive staffing services, especially floor closers, finance managers (F&I Managers), sales and general managers, and desk managers.

Is your automotive staff dealership-ready?

Yes. Every candidate in our automotive staffing has real-world dealership experience.

How fast can you staff an auto dealership?

Typically within 72 hours. Even faster if you're a returning client.

Do you provide temp staffing?

Yes, in AutoXperts, we provide temporary staffing solutions across the Southeast of the United States.

Do you provide full-time staff?

Yes, we do. Many dealerships use us to stay flexible, reduce burnout, and bridge gaps during turnover, PTO, or seasonal spikes.
