I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax
Interview
After initial contact, multiple phone interviews and on-site interviews. Asked a number of times to reschedule for no significant reason, and told after "final candidate interview" that decision would be forthcoming in 3 days or sooner, then waited over a week. Not a very positive interviewing experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing difficult or unexpected in interviews; skills testing included plenty of math and comparative evaluation of reporting, with no measurement of HR skills.
I applied online. I interviewed at CarMax (Atlanta, GA) in Nov 2019
Interview
I first spoke with a recruiter who was very helpful and easy to speak with. I then spoke with the hiring manager who asked a lot of great questions. I received a call stating I would not be moving forward in the interview process. When I reached out to find out where I missed the mark I got no response. That was very disappointing.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at CarMax (Richmond, VA) in May 2014
Interview
Very long and tedious process. Went several weeks after first interview to get contacted for second. Interviewed with multiple leaders including the head of HR. Acted a little pompous. All behavior based questions. They did not want to hear anything about strategy. Just tactics. If you don't give them the exact answer they're looking for, you're done.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at CarMax (Richmond, VA) in Feb 2014
Interview
Phone interview and 2 in person interview. Basic situational questions. They are looking for specifics. The phone interview is asking about basic work history as well as skill question. They verify the information on your resume. One of the in person interview is a panel format.
