The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (New York, NY) in Sep 2021
Interview
5 interviews total - 3 case interviews, 1 “job fit” and 1 skills… total waste of time and unnecessary. The whole process was very inhuman..barely talked to you and the interviewers all felt cold and really were just trying to ask questions on a page so they could fill it out to submit. Not really getting to know you or your background. Says a lot about a company and their culture. Remember capital one, we’re interviewing you too to see if you’re a good fit. Not just one way. Also - heard from others that they don’t provide feedback if you don’t make it which is just very odd and insensitive.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Capital One (Arlington, VA) in Oct 2021
Interview
The interview process was a bit strange because I really wasn't told what the actual job was for. They have a very broad application for product management that was supposed to cover quite a few positions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1) Why do you want to work for capital one?
2) On the Mini-Case interview, I was asked about CreditWise, and mainly asked what I know about it.
There was also another portion asking me about a specific feature they wanted to implement about the sign up process for Creditwise and improvements that can be made and how some of the features can be tested.
There were some red flags during the interview as the director of the PM role seem very out of it and non-interested. My interview was over zoom and the entire time, the director was not really focused. Every once in a while, the director asked me to provide more details to the question, almost as if they are looking for a specific buzzword. The entire interview felt very loosely structured and the entire time, the director looked very unamused.
Good interview process for first round, surrounding credit wise product. I felt the interview process was different from traditional interviews where it's important to know how to prepare, otherwise it's difficult. Thankful to previous Glassdoor reviews, I was able to prepare properly.
