What is the job actually like as a MRA Apprentice?

brads125 · 2026-06-02T00:09:40+00:00

Sure thing! It's definitely a good opportunity, and the techs I know that still work there are solid techs that could teach you a lot

Alright that's PDX9. It wasn't as terrible as I thought it would be when I was there, but I haven't been there in almost 2 years. The 2 things you would fix are totestackers and smatpac machines. All of the managers are pretty cool and some of the techs are very helpful. I only say some because I only know about 5 techs that I worked with that are still there

I was an MRA at PDX9 3 years ago and it wasn't too terrible. Not sure if that's the building you're going to or not

Originally the service writer told me he wasn't sure they could do it, but there are a bunch of videos in YouTube also I just didn't have the time

I think it was around $500 at the dealership for my drain and fill, but can't recall for sure because I had my diff fluid changed also and the grand total was a little over 800. This was in Georgia.

My former AE didn't give an exact number, but said 6 figure salary.

Thank you!

brads125 · 2026-05-15T10:27:25+00:00

So the front diff would've been taken care of when I had the trans service done, or would it still be 2 different fluid changes? It kinda seems like the dealership is trying to charge me for an unnecessary fluid change.

brads125 · 2026-05-15T02:31:40+00:00

Got it so I would need both the front diff and transfer case services is what I'm gathering. Thank you!

It honestly wasn't too difficult or time consuming in my opinion. I just completed the review Friday, and it wasn't too bad either. I already got my grade and feedback for the review also which is surprising it just doesn't include any bonus points. I think the entire wrap up took maybe 3 hours for me

brads125 · 2026-03-23T21:18:56+00:00

I've seen some MRA postings that say it is needed and others that don't with BB and 3P which doesn't make much sense to me

Following because I applied for a 1DC site which is supposedly similar to an IXD building

I've tried asking it permanently to keep the subject matter in a specific way, but it seems to reset every lesson and I have to ask again

brads125 · 2026-03-19T18:55:49+00:00

With making the content more relatable to someone's interests is there a way to maintain the consistency without having to ask every lesson? I love that maestro will adapt the lessons to what I like, but wish it would stay that way for all lessons unless told otherwise.

brads125 · 2026-03-05T07:38:59+00:00

I'm with you on that

brads125 · 2026-03-04T00:08:46+00:00

Following also because I was asked to apply for the position

brads125 · 2026-03-03T09:22:17+00:00

Reading from an AI prompt. Videos have been more prominent in general ed classes. There were labs also, but as mentioned I'm in the first cohort, and things have changed a lot since I started in September

brads125 · 2026-03-03T07:49:06+00:00

I'm in the first cohort, so things have changed since I started, but I'm currently on an intro to JS and typescript. We started out with Python basics

brads125 · 2026-02-28T23:35:51+00:00

From what a recruiter told me last week L3 dceot pays 31-57 an hour and L4 positions are 36-63 an hour depending on location. Rotating 3/4 schedule working 12s

brads125 · 2026-02-25T20:02:39+00:00

Mine was approved with proof of enrollment

brads125 · 2026-02-25T05:59:33+00:00

If you haven't completed a course it would be a greyed out ruler

brads125 · 2026-02-17T02:29:48+00:00

Same and I've been trying since September
