I interviewed at Cox Automotive

Interview

It was 2 interviews that went by pretty quick with 5 days of each other. Second one was an online interview. Didn't get the offer but after they explain what I would be doing kind of didn't want it anyway. I interviewed with a recruiter the first time and 3 managers and/or leader the second time. All was about 30 mins long.

Interview

Recruiter and hiring manager were very responsive and always kept you on the loop. Interviews were relevant but at the same time they made it feel like a true conversation. All interviewers were very friendly and knowledgeable, and you could tell they love what they do and are committed to the company’s success.

Interview

They made it seem like I was a shoe-in for the role. I had completed 7 different interviews. They then went silent for 3 weeks. Once I finally spoke to the hiring manager, I asked him what hang ups there were with me. He said there weren’t any. A few days later, I received a rejection email from them without anyone giving me an explanation. Weird, unprofessional, and disrespectful.

Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cox Automotive (Salt Lake City, UT) in Sep 2022

Interview

1. Brief screening interview with recruiter. 2. Interview with hiring manager. Casual tone, general get to know you conversation. 3. Technical interview with a staff developer. This part was poorly done. The interviewer was arrogant and condescending. Most questions didn't seem aimed at showing competency; rather about how good my memory is and how well I work with someone looking over my shoulder. 4. Interview with scum masters. Pleasant people, nice casual conversation.

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Cox Automotive (Lebanon, TN) in Aug 2022

Interview

The recruiter completely misled the job function and position. I took a half day off my current position to go and interview. 5 minutes in they begin to go over how the position is 95% outdoors and it’s functions. Unfortunately I had to stop them as it didn’t match anything the recruiter had gone over and they’d wasted my time and the local office’s time. I do want to point out the local Manheim Facility was very understanding and it became apparent this has happened before.
