Capital One Director Interview

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Plano, TX (took 3 weeks)

Interview process consists of s phone screen from the recruiting department that will go over the basic questions of who are you, why are you looking, what is you experience. Next if you havent registered and applied online you will have to fill out a profile and submit to the req posted. Once you have submitted they will then send you skills tests and personality tests. The tests are different depending on what job or level you are applying for. Though no matter what position you need to dedicate the required time aside to be quite so you can focus. The test are made to be challenging. Ensure that prior to your test you have everything you need like extra paper, extra writing utensils, calculator, water... You get the point. All of my tests (4 tests) lasted an hour (they are all timed). Once it is completely the recruiter will the what for the third party vendor to report them the scores on if you passed or failed. If you passed it will be in three levels, low, moderate, and high. Depending on what level is required for the role will determine if you move forward. Once you pass the testing you will be presented to the hiring manager for a screen telephone interview. If that goes well they will either fly you out for a full day of interviews. Plan on 6 to 9 in one day consisting of individuals you will be partnering with.. The on site interviews will be a combination of job fit, behavioral, or case. The interview will come into the room with a packet telling them what questions need to be covered. Each interview lasts about 50 mins. They have a recruiting area where everyone comes there to interview so you don't move around a lot. Ensure you interview them as well. Make sure to ask and find out about the role the culture the talent so you will know if that is the environment for you. Once those interviews are completed you fly home. Then all the interviewers come together to meet to discuss their interviews with you and what next steps will be. Then they fly you back for another round usually to give you an offer. At this point it has been a long process and you should have a great idea about the company and the individuals you will be working with, expectations, overall culture and if this is the right fit. Good luck! Practice your case interview questions!!
