Interview
I met a recruiter at my university's career fair and submitted an application. About a week later I was contacted about setting up a non-technical on campus interview with a TDP manager. A couple weeks after the on campus interview I was asked to fly out the the McLean (D.C) office to conduct an on-site interview. The onsite interview consisted of a behavioral interview, a technical (coding) interview and a business case.
The behavioral interviewer asked fairly typical questions about my background and projects I had worked on. The technical interview asked fairly simple coding questions that can be found in most coding interview resources, the emphasis seemed to be placed more on explaining how I thought about the problem than getting the correct answer. I would recommend demonstrating multiple ways to solve the technical questions if possible. I had never done a business case in an interview before so I was a little bit nervous, but Capital One supplies you with a video to prepare you for how to work through a business case. The best advice I can give is just try to think through the case logically and be very vocal in your line of thinking, be confident in what you say and in explaining how you arrived to a solution.
I had an enjoyable interview experience, the process was very succinct and I always felt well informed about each step.
