I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Oct 2024
Interview
It starts with recruiter call (usual stuff) then coding challenge (take home) which you have one week to complete (credit card fraud). then 1 hour interview with hiring manager which was casual chat about resume and past experiences. then moving to power day including 4 back to back interviews with 1 case study (only math), 1 coding ( walk through a code and explain the code), 1 casual chat with hiring manager, and one role play (making a presentation from a power point slides about flight delays). I haven't heard back from recruiter and he hasn't responded to my follow up.

Technical: interview with hiring manager about technical stuff. casual talk about your experiences and your resume. and then some fit questions about what do you like and why. then some behavioral questions about how do you handle certain situations. then some questions about a mini study. how do you approach a certain scenario and why and answering some basic questions.
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA) in Sept 2020
Interview
Interview steps with a phone screen (30 mins). The recruiter was an immensely polite, courteous, and fun person, probably the best I have ever experienced. Then came the technical screen of 60 mins, which was quite easy and smooth. I stumbled at the data the challenge (7 days), which admittedly was my fault as I didn't stick to the questions and failed to address the core last question with confidence. Throughout the entire team was courtious and humble. I didn't go further with them, but this should be a good place to work at with high moral standards.
