I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at CarMax in Apr 2008
Interview
The interview process was very in depth and thorough. It is joked about that it is harder to get hired into the Purchasing Dept than it is to get accepted into Harvard. It seemed as though I had a half dozen interviews, the last of which was an interview with the Regional Vice President to give the go-ahead.

Tell me about a time when you had to discipline somebody at work.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at CarMax in Oct 2009
Interview
Typical interview process with two groups of two high level (management) associates asking 10 questions. Cordial and was forthcoming with answers to questions asked. Looked like a great environment to work in. I was disappointed in the response I got from them. Took a week to finally get word back. A short e-mail from their corporate office basically saying "thanks, but no thanks" Would have been nice to get some feedback, but I assume they already had an internal candidate in mind and had to go through the motions for outsiders.

Question 1
I noticed you have a lot of experience in your field. So why did you not go the next step to be a store manager?
