I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Jan 2022
Interview
Interviewed after hearing good things about the company and a recruiter reached out. Easily the worst recruiting experience of my life. No one knows what they are doing, you clear the power day and get paraded around to managers for weeks only to get rejected THREE MONTHS LATER with zero explanation. Your experience depends on lucking out and getting matched with the right team to interview with (a process you have no input in). In an attempt to streamline the process Capital One has created the most dehumanising interview experience for a candidate. Don’t waste your time.

Question 1
Case interviews - they don’t care about anything else
I was referred so first a game like assessment that tested basically middle school algebra skills. Then a business case power day with three different interviewers, two of them were analytical and one was product
R1 was VJT, which was fairly simple. R2 was a screening case study, and lastly a Powerday. Powerday was grueling and cases were math heavy (bank related as well). Would recommend the process.

Question 1
They gave a product and asked for multiple ways to improve it.
1 online assessment followed by Power Day with 1 product and 2 cases. Power Day was quite tricky with concepts being combined and tested in different forms. Staying calm and taking in every word is crucial in keeping up with the casing.
