CarMax plans to open 10 to 15 stores during the next year, Ellwood said. Many of the positions will be in new locations, but some will be in existing stores and other operations.
CarMax is the biggest seller of used cars nationally and has been one of Fortune magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work for” since 2005.
“From day one, new associates are an integral part of our culture and business,” CarMax CEO Tom Folliard said in a statement. “They are our most valuable asset, and trusted advisors to our customers and to each other.”
CarMax has 139 superstores in 70 markets, but cities with the most job openings are Sacramento, Calif.; Bakersfield, Calif.; Cincinnati; Atlanta; Lancaster, Pa.; and Huntsville, Ala.
