Interview
Most pain-free and smooth interview process I have ever experienced. First round was an on-campus interview with a current Capital One employee. The recruiter sent out an email detailing exactly what I should expect in the on-campus interview (3 behavioral questions). Showed up at the interview, was greeted by another Capital One employee, then went into the interview room. Had a really great conversation with the interviewer, thanked her, and heard back within the week. Second round was a personality/skills assessment that was administered online. Pretty basic--I think they are just looking to assess your verbal/quant skills and personality fit. Final round was at the campus in Plano, TX. Capital One paid for the trip (airline/hotel/car service/food) and made it easy to arrange these accomodations (everything was booked through a travel agency that they use). Total of 3 interviews (2 behavioral and 1 case). Fairly straightforward. Employees take you on a campus tour and to lunch in one of their cafeterias. Great culture--employees seemed happy and enthusiastic about the projects they were working on.

Interview
Got a phone call from the company recuriter, pass the online assessment on the personality, and fly to the company for half-day onsite interview (with four groups of interviewers, three pairs and one single). Kind of knowing the interview was screwed (answered some questions incorrectly) and the next day notified by the recuriter that I was rejected.

Question 1
Questions are not really hard but easy to make some minor mistakes, which probably is very sensitive by these interviewers.
