I applied in-person. I interviewed at CarMax (Ontario, CA) in Dec 2015
Interview
Panel Interview called MAP which was extremely grueling to prepare for over the course of many months. Current interview to promote from Sales Consultant to Sales Manager no longer requires this panel interview but instead consists of a series of in-store demonstrations that are created for you to prove yourself as a manager by exhibiting competencies expected of a sales manager

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at CarMax
Interview
They recruit Sales Managers and various Retail Managers to become sales consultants. Just smoke and mirrors. Nobody is hired as a Sales Manager. Regardless of experience. Just do some hoework at the location and ask around.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax
Interview
Very very lengthy, phone interview went super well, in person interview very different. Recruiter brought me in saying they were opening a location within 50 minutes of my home, had to drive 2.5 hrs interviewing for a position at that location. Very odd huge waste of time
