Application
I applied online. I interviewed at CarMax (Pleasanton, CA) in Mar 2017
Interview
The process itself is quick; I applied online and got a call back within the same week. CarMax is usually hiring and hires anyone with a heartbeat (or so it seems). The interview itself is long and annoying! Be prepared to stay there all day! My interview took 4-5 hours but I was hired on the spot. You are typically interviewed by 2-3 different managers in the same day. They ask you pretty much the same questions about general experience and your background (It’s to make sure your not lying) (Yes, I guess some people lie about their personal information). They’ll typically hire you as long as you are honest and you aren’t on your phone during that time! And don’t be a second late to the interview!

Question 1
Explain a difficult task you had to complete and how did you complete it?
Applied online, then did an assessment. Phone interview a few days later, then got scheduled for an in-person interview later that week. Easy process, the way it should be. I was offered a job on the spot.
3 interviews with 2 managers and direct manager, all behavioral questions. No difficult questions were asked, most standard interview questions. All done within about 2 hours and was given an offer on the spot.
I applied online. I interviewed at CarMax (Richmond, TX) in May 2021
Interview
The managers that interviewed me were very knowledgeable about the company and I had an overall great experience interviewing with them. I asked plenty of questions about the job , the state of the position, and the company as whole(development, training , growth) they were able to answer every question spot on.
