      Sales Manager Interview

      10 Jul 2011
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Phoenix, AZ
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax (Phoenix, AZ) in Jul 2011

      Interview

      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.
