First had to pass an OA on codesignal.
Recruiter then scheduled a Power Day interview virtually:
1 Case interview -
1 Behavioral interview -
1 System design -
1 Technical
Questions are pretty standard and not too diffucult. Interviewers were friendly.

Question 1
1 Case interview - This one's unique. Have some product perspective to evaluate benefits/cons. Be prepared to evaluate logic based questions.
1 Behavioral interview - Pretty generic "Tell me about a time when.."
1 System design - Generic Design XYZ
1 Technical - Leetcode Mediums
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Capital One in Oct 2020
Interview
4 roughly one hour interviews, each with a different disposition.
One technical coding interview, the engineer conducting the interview was helpful but didn't give away too much, but don't be scared, it was a very reasonable problem to solve.
The case study interview was really fun and a little technical. Prepping for that was key to just be ready to think with both a business and technical hat on.
The architecture/design interview was the most fun, we designed a whole system and talked through the challenges of scale, security, and evolving needs.

Estoy apenas recibiendo la propuesta de agenda para la entrevista, todo de una manera muy respetuosa y con mucha comunicación entre ambas partes, atendiendo cualquier incidencia que pueda darse, ajustes y entendimientos entre los participantes en la entrevista.
First round: 4 questions on an automated coding platform. First two were relatively easy and last 2 were difficult. Would suggest not prematurely optimizing.
Second round: 4 interviews on one day ("power day").
