I applied for the position online and later got the reach out from HR. I did an interview online with a business analyst for about 1 hour. I didn't pass this interview, so I didn't know the process after that.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There is a math question about buying land to build a new store. The question involves a lot of numbers, and you need to calculate and choose the land that will benefit the company the most.
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CarMax (Richmond, VA) in Feb 2024
Interview
1-hour behavioral and case interview with an analyst. Then a virtual super day. The behavioral questions are quite basic. The case however takes most of the 1 hour time. Felt like I aced the case but was sent a rejection email at 3:40 am the next Saturday. When I asked for feedback, they told me they were unable to provide feedback due to policy.
I applied through university. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at CarMax in Oct 2022
Interview
First, 1 hour phone interview with a senior in the field. She asked me about a dataset that I have worked that was used to solve a business problem. Asked my about variables and what I did. After this, we did a case together that was about figuring which land to purchase for a new carmax store location. Overall, the case wasn't as hard at others (like capital one) but the wording was confusing and there were a lot of numbers, which messed me up. After this, the interviewer asked basic behavioral questions about teamwork.
