It was a quick and fairly informal with a case interview. There were two rounds. The second round had three interviews. The interviewers were very kind. There was a behavioral, then job fit, then case interview.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Feb 2022
Interview
I applied online in November. I heard back from a recruiter in January. I had a first round (behavioral) and heard back within one day. Scheduled Powerday for two weeks later (behavioral, job fit, case). Received offer one day later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
First Round - 3 main “Tell me a time when…” questions with related follow-up questions. Followed the STAR method.
Powerday - Behavioral: same as first round, Job Fit: not what I was expecting based on what information I was provided in preparation. Less direct questions about your resume and personal learning/working style and more situational questions about how you would motivate a team and propose an idea to your manager Case: classic-style, less math than I expected and more conceptual, easy break-even analysis. Capital One provided videos on their YouTube channel with a practice case study in addition to a recorded “Business Case Study Workshop” which was also helpful! Capital One definitely provided multiple resources to help with interview preparation. Overall a great interview process!
Overall positive interview process. Had initial round at my university which was under 30 minutes and a breeze. Second and final round was at their Richmond campus. This consisted of 3 rounds and was a 4 hour experience.
