Application
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (Chapel Hill, NC) in Sept 2018
Interview
Process was fast, and simple. Responses were also in a timely manner, interviewers were friendly. My interview was also on-campus. C1 gives you an interview guide beforehand, and the process mainly follows the guide. My interview did not have a design question, but everything else followed the guide.

Question 1
Find the first occurrence of the intersection of two sets.
Online Assessment -> Power Day Interview. Power Day was a total of 4 hrs, three one-hour interviews with a one hr break in between. Included Technical (coding from scratch), Behavioral, and Technical Case (answering questions and fixing code).
3 rounds of interview: case study, coding problem (written on paper), and soft-skill interview. Soft-skill interview is structured, revolving around 4 questions. There were 2 coding problems. 1 was intermediate and the other was easy.
Had a zoom interview because of the pandemic. Everyone was friendly, had a behavioral, a case, and a technical interview. The technical questions were similar to LeetCode easy/medium and the behavioral questions were nice easy ones. I ended up accepting their offer.
