I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at CarMax (Memphis, TN) in Nov 2014
Interview
long. met with three managers. none had nothing to do with service department. and knew nothing about the service side of a dealership, thought it funny I was hiring in for service and never met the service mngr. they wanted ASE certified technician. but they only hired the general service guys that had no certifications at all. I am still scratching my head. I don't think they have any idea what they are doing when it comes to service side of the industry

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CarMax in Aug 2025
Interview
I did not get the chance to interview. My recruiter reached out at 7:30am asking to schedule for 10am. I did not confirm I was available but received a phone call anyway, which I missed because I was not expecting it. I have reached out for another opportunity to interview and reapplied but have not had any helpful communication since.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at CarMax (Brooklyn Park, MN) in Jul 2019
Interview
Phone interview, then in person, Cliche "tell me about a time when you....." questions.... drug test on site. Honestly if you have a pulse you will get this job. They are desperate for people because the work environment and culture is terrible like high schoolers. Gossip, drama. Baaaaaad.
