The hiring process at Capital One takes an average of 90 days when considering 1 user submitted interviews across all job titles. Candidates applying for Senior AI Engineer had the quickest hiring process (on average 90 days), whereas Senior AI Engineer roles had the slowest hiring process (on average 90 days).
The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Capital One (Toronto, ON)
Interview
They emailed me a link titled “Virtual Job Tryout.” It seems to include mostly behavioral questions designed to understand how I think, approach challenges, solve problems, and collaborate with others in different work situations.
I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Capital One in Apr 2025
Interview
First I took an online coding test sometime in April.
I then scheduled a "final round" Power Day interview through my recruiter which took place near the end of April. Didn't hear back from my recruiter following said interview, so I reached out and received no response.
In their portal I was still under consideration for this role so I reached out again only to hear from my recruiter again for the first time following my Power Day 3 months later at the end of June, notifying me that there was an additional team matching process (which I was not made aware of)
I received a generic rejection email in mid August, again after receiving no feedback or even basic information from my recruiter after their full day interview. Wildly unprofessional
