I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax (Kennesaw, GA) in Mar 2010
Interview
I applied on-line through my school's career website. From there, I did a phone interview with a quick case interview (mostly mathematical). I was immediately invited to come in for the full day interview. The day consisted of several 1 on 1 case interviews, a panel case, lunch with another interviewee and two current analyst in the department I was applying for, personality test, skills test, timed IQ test, background check, drug test, personality interview, and finally a quick interview and tentative offer from one of the higher ups. It was maybe 3 weeks until I got a formal offer and another month before I started. Wonderful people there made the LONG process very enjoyable. Love the job!!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give an example of how you have handled conflict with a previous boss or coworker.
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
