I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at CarMax (Richmond, VA) in Oct 2010
Interview
I applied online, they contacted me for a phone case interview. After passing that, I had to pass some online intelligence tests, and then they had me come to the home office for a day of behavioral and case interviews. I had 4 interviews with 4 different managers/directors in the strategy group. I had a great experience there, got an offer, and now I have been working there for about 8 months.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What are your three biggest strengths and 3 biggest weaknesses?
Basic behavior questions, walk me through your resume, why this company, why this role, why you are leaving your previous role. It's a video call. HR is punctual and friendly.
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax (Richmond, VA) in Mar 2020
Interview
Had to take two assessments beforehand, met with recruiter, then a case interview with a member of the hiring team. Assessments were long and tedious, the interpretation/visualization one was difficult, math was timed and it's designed for you to not be able to finish. Recruiter was a basic interview/screen. Case (details included below) was rather difficult if you haven't done that type of math in years.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at CarMax in Jan 2019
Interview
Went through two phone screens and then a case interview over the phone. The case interview went very well, and the interviewer immediately told me he wanted me to come in and interview onsite. I received an email from HR to schedule an onsite, replied with my times, and then never heard back, even after following up. Very poorly handled.

Question 1
Case was about where to place a bridge, basically just calculating expected value
