Ask how the employer divides the working day among showroom coverage, appointments, test drives, delivery preparation and online enquiries. Confirm the actual schedule, including any evening or weekend expectations, rather than relying on a general description of retail hours. Other useful questions concern outdoor vehicle demonstrations, access to charging for demonstration vehicles and procedures for test drives. Ask how customer leads are assigned and who provides coverage during breaks or absences. These details help you assess the pace, physical demands and team arrangements.
