CarMax announces plans to hire 2,000 company-wide, 70 in Richmond area by year’s end

Richmond-based CarMax, the largest retailer of used cars nationwide, announced plans this week to hire for more than 2,000 positions by the end of the year. Over 70 of those positions are for the company’s headquarters in the West Creek corporate center near Short Pump and CarMax’s Richmond stores.

Named one of the “100 Best Companies to Work For” by Fortune Magazine for 13 years in a row, CarMax has more than 24,000 employees nationwide.

The majority of new and open positions are for sales consultants, technicians, detailers, and inventory associates. CarMax stores are also hiring for positions within its business offices nationwide. Additionally, the company is hiring for several customer service positions at CarMax Auto Finance in Atlanta, Georgia and for digital and technology positions at the headquarters in Richmond.

“First and foremost, CarMax seeks to hire people with integrity who are passionate about customer service,” said Diane Cafritz, the company’s Senior Vice President and human resources director. “Experience in the auto industry is not necessary to work at CarMax. The company values personal growth and education which is why CarMax provides ongoing support and development opportunities for our associates.”
