Had an interview not to long ago, I don't think they use the CAR acronym anymore. My interview they use the star acronym and actually record my response to the STAR.

Did a lot of research on questions they ask they can hang you up and practice. It makes the answer short and what they want to know.

S - Situation or
T - Task
A - Action you took
R - Results you achieved

These were all based on behavioral questions

Hope this helps
