      Operations Manager Trainee Interview

      11 Sept 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Naperville, IL
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax (Naperville, IL) in Aug 2010

      Interview

      pretty simple process. First got a call after I applied online. I had a 1:1 with the recruiter, ask me some questions about my previous jobs and then about 5-6 behavioral based questions (ie tell me a time when...). Next I had a interview in person with the LGM and Operations Manager at the locations. Same style of interview, just a little harder questions. I was asked to give a drug test on-site. Final interview was with the Regional HR people. Same behavioral based questions but this time much tougher.
