Interviewed Mar 2012 (took 3 days)
Interview process was longer than normal because I was waiting for another offer to come in from another company. An offer I did not get, so I took the CarMax offer. The process was detailed and very good. I enjoyed learning more about CarMax.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took 2 weeks)
They contacted me by e-mail and arranged for a very pleasant phone interview.
That was followed by a visit to a local branch where they asked me to do on-line stuff,
like IQ test, etc. A little later, I was interviewed by two store managers who were very
polite and intelligent. A week later, I went to see another gentleman who runs the HR
department for the region. That was another great interview by a very kind man. A week
later I was offered a position and I accepted.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took 2 weeks)
Went back and forth with the internal recruiting department. Emailed various quizes and questionaires to fill out. Thenhad phone interview about one week after initial application. Spent an hour on the phone, offered an in store interview, was told to plan on spending three hours in the store. Met with asst to manager who asked me to fill out the same information I already had online, then spent 20 minutes being grilled on my past driving history and criminal history (of which I have none). Very annoying as the questions I had answered on the computer moments before were thre exact same ones. Led me to wonder who applied to work there. Finally met with the manager for ten minutes. He was nice enough but I didnt feel like I was worth his time to speak to. They sent me a form letter a few days letter saying they were nt interested. Felt like I invested a lot fo time as this whole process took almost two weeks. Very disappointed in the way things were handled. Most employees seemed happy.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took 1 week)
I applied online and received an email for a phone interview about 4 days later. The phone interview was with a recruiter from their head office, the interview went well and lasted over an hour. The questions consisted of a few behavioral based questions and about my background. I was then asked to have a 1:1 interview with the General Manager of the store/dealership. The recruiter said to account for about 3-4 hours at the dealership which would include interviews and testing. I arrived and was asked to answer some addition questions about if i have ever stolen anything, if i had taken drugs, etc. I then had an interview with the GM. We were about to start the interview when someone walked and and said "oh you are conducting an interview, how long will it take?", the GM said 45min. I thought that was odd since you never know how long interviews can take. So he asked behavioral based questions and wrapped up the interview in about 30min. I had a feeling that he had already selected someone for the position since he kept looking at the clock and really didn't seem interested in my answers. He looked bored for most of the interview. I would say that I wasn't really excited about working at a car dealership so it was a good thing that I wasn't asked for additional interviews. About a week later I received an email that I was not selected.
