Gurpreet Singh is 310T Licensed Mechanic and currently works as a Garage Foreman at Purolator where he is responsible for scheduling and diagnosing repairs, reviewing Preventative Maintenance lists to ensure timely servicing, and supervising the repair process. For students interested in becoming mechanics, Gurpreet Singh recommends choosing a dealership (such as Volvo, Kenworth, Freightliner, and so on) for apprenticeship as they provide more hands-on experience and online/in-class training. For the long term, he would advise up-and-coming mechanics to strive for larger federal, provincial, or municipal companies such as Go Transit or the TTC. In short, they provide many more opportunities for promotion, growth, and career advancement.
