I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax (Richmond, VA) in Sep 2016
Interview
I interviewed at the corporate office in Richmond Virginia. First was an online numerical skills test and personality test. Then had a phone case interview. I then went in for a full day (6-7 hour) interview process at their corporate campus. I was told essentially nothing except to show up at the specified time. I went through 4 separate interviews with various employees, 2 of which were further case interviews. At the end of the day I took an oral drug test and answered a series of increasingly bizarre questions about my past ("Since age 18, have you ever committed homicide or rape?" Seriously? This is an interview for a professional position.) I wasn't offered the job and wasn't provided any reasoning why beyond a generic rejection. I found this somewhat disrespectful after such a lengthy process and time investment on my part.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you disagreed with a coworker
I applied online. I interviewed at CarMax (New York, NY)
Interview
Lengthy online application, quick phone interview, another online application in person, followed by face to face interviews with managers. Be prepared to sign off on having every single piece of your history pulled from different government agencies. They want to know every single job you've held in last 7 years, amount of time unemployed, if you're eligible for rehire, and they will check everything. If one piece is missing or doesn't add up, you are automatically disqualified. All traffic tickets count against you on a point scale (10 points is automatic disqualification), and you better remember every address you've lived at as well as the exact length of time at each. They also pull your credit history. The actual interview is of average difficulty and not very hard in my opinion - it is the background checks that make it difficult. It's hard to remember every single thing from the last 7 years.

Question 1
Why do you want to work for carmax? Did you leave any jobs off of your resume and if so why? Why did you leave each job you've had in the last 7 years? What did you do at each job? Describe a time when you worked as a team to accomplish a goal?
They want specific examples using the STAR method (explained on their website)
