I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital One in Feb 2014
Interview
Went through a pretty standard case involving the costs of a mini golf course. I was nervous and messed up some numbers, but the interviewer was very nice about it. The case is structured around understanding your thought process, so the interviewer relies on you to ask the right questions to receive more relevant information.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given the fixed/variable costs, is this venture profitable?
3 rounds of interviews, technical round focused on domain of expertise. Then there was a case study round. Interviewer was interested in execution of clear thoughts on data along with written codes.
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.
