Interview Question for Director, Corporate Development at Capital One:

All of the cases started out with some qualitative brainstorming, including some sort of net profit calculation, and concluded with a breakeven calculation of some type. So, make sure you generally know how to calculate the profitability of a credit card customer and what a default rate is. The interviewer will walk you through a scenario, and then provide you with some numbers to do the case. I was told that they would provide me with paper, pens, calculator, and a white board. In every instance, I had to ask for paper and did not get a calculator, so perhaps the recruiter just gave me stale information.
