Autojobs

What Autojobs does

Autojobs (legal entity AUTOjobs.com, Inc.), founded in 1995 and headquartered in Grand Junction, Colorado, operates a two-sided online job marketplace dedicated exclusively to the automotive industry. The platform connects automotive employers — primarily dealerships, independent repair shops, collision centers, OEMs, aftermarket parts businesses, and fleet operations — with job seekers across categories including Technician/Mechanic, Sales & Sales Management, Service & Service Management, Parts & Parts Management, Auto Body Shop, Dealership Support, Administration, Heavy Truck, Quick Lube & Car Wash, OEM/Aftermarket, and Entry Level. Approximately 250 active listings are live at any given time across the U.S. and Canada.

The platform is built on a standard web-based job-board architecture with ATS integration that allows employers to redirect applicant flows into third-party applicant tracking systems. Core product surfaces include: (1) a self-serve Job Posting Platform with tiered pricing from $200 for a 4-week single posting to $995 for unlimited postings over 6 months, plus $100 add-on fees per additional region or department category; (2) a searchable Resume Database sold standalone at $400 for 6 months or bundled with active job-posting subscriptions; (3) a candidate-side Job Search and Resume Posting service with job alert functionality; and (4) a free Job Description Resources library covering specialized automotive role templates. Differentiated platform features include Confidential Job Posting (employer-side stealth hiring) and Confidential Resume Posting (candidate-side stealth searching with gated contact via employer-submitted forms).

Revenue is generated entirely from employer-side spend across three streams: one-time job posting purchases, recurring resume database subscriptions, and per-region/per-department transaction fees. Distribution is dual-channel: a self-serve, SEO-led direct website for SMB employers and inside-sales phone outreach for larger dealer groups. The company is privately held, independently owned (no disclosed VC/PE backing), and operates with a 1–10 person team under President and Owner Steve Brown.

Direct peers

• iHire: Network of industry-specific job boards (iHireAutomotive, iHireMechanic, etc.) operating on the same vertical-specialization thesis as AUTOjobs. Closest comparable in business model — niche job boards monetized via employer subscriptions and resume database access.
• JobsInTrucks.com: Vertical job board serving the trucking and heavy-duty vehicle industry, overlapping with AUTOjobs' Heavy Truck category (14 active listings). Same business model — vertical job board monetized via employer subscriptions.
• Snagajob: Specialty job board focused on hourly and skilled trades, including automotive service roles. Comparable in product model (niche job board with employer subscriptions) and overlaps with AUTOjobs on quick-lube, entry-level, and technician categories.
• MechanicJobs.com: Vertical job board focused specifically on automotive technician and mechanic roles — directly competing with AUTOjobs' largest category (Technician/Mechanic, 113 active listings). Closest head-to-head competitor in the core technician segment.

Broad incumbents

• Monster: Long-standing generalist job board competing for automotive employer spend alongside Indeed and LinkedIn. Comparable to AUTOjobs on the demand side (employer job postings) but lacks the automotive vertical specialization.
• ZipRecruiter: Publicly traded generalist job board with AI-driven matching and a subscription model for employers. Directly competes with AUTOjobs for SMB dealer and shop hiring budgets while offering cross-industry reach.
• Indeed: The largest generalist job board globally; competes directly with AUTOjobs for employer hiring spend but serves all industries, not just automotive. Its free baseline postings and massive candidate database set the pricing reference point AUTOjobs must justify.
• CareerBuilder: Established generalist job board competing with AUTOjobs for SMB automotive employers. Less differentiated today than Indeed/ZipRecruiter but still draws employer share away from vertical boards.
• LinkedIn (Jobs): Microsoft-owned professional network whose Jobs feature serves as a horizontal recruiting channel for white-collar automotive roles (sales, F&I, GSM, dealer support). Competes with AUTOjobs on the higher-end roles that LinkedIn users occupy.

Emerging players

• HVAC Jobs: Vertical job board specializing in HVAC and skilled trades. Comparable in business model (niche job board targeting a specific trade) but does not directly compete with AUTOjobs in automotive — useful as a structural reference for vertical job board economics.
