I applied through university. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA) in Mar 2016
Interview
I did a first round behavioral interview on my school campus and then I was invited to richmond for my second round interview. Second round interviews took place in the main office in Richmond. They conducted a behavioral interview, a case interview, and a job fit interview. Behavioral and job fit interviews were straight forward. The case interview was more tricky than I expected. The interviewers were all very friendly and it was not an intimidating process.

Question 1
For the case interview they talked about wanting to get their credit card customers to use their mortgage services. They wanted to develop an app that customers could use to utilize the mortgage services. They asked what factors to consider when developing an app. They asked me to calculate total costs total revenue and then conduct a cost benefit analysis.
Interview process started with an online Assessmsent first, HR Screening , then mini case study. Case study involved data review, giving feedback on how results could be improved. You will get asked technical questions (how would you build a certain application so have UI and Design questions practiced.
Frist round included a virtual culture assessment. Online scenarios and options of what to chose so that they can see the types of decisions you make, not necessarily how you make these decisions.
The interview process was smooth overall. It started with a computer screening, followed by a 30-minute recruiter call focused on my experience and fit with Capital One. Then I had a one-hour “money case” discussing a Capital One product from different angles. I’ve now moved to the PowerDay round, which includes two product cases, one product skills round, and one product discovery round.
