I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax (Richmond, VA)
Interview
Phone interview asked probabiliy and statistics questions...brief in length (only about 30 minutes). The interviewer was kind and respectful....and the outcome of that first round interview was contingent on whether or not the interviewee successfully answered the case question.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions weren't unexpected if you had read the information packet sent out with the information about the first round interview.
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 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
