The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA) in Mar 2011
Interview
The night before the interview, we had a diinner in the hotel restaurant with some current employees. It is obvious that Capital One is trying to hire younger people with a collegiate attitude. The employee talked about how much he drank on the company's dime. Not for me, but some may find this appealing. The interviews were case style interviews. I thought they went well but I struggled on averages for some reason. I am by no means an idiot but for some reason I blanked. I did not get an offer. The campus was excellent and I think that in the way the business operates, innovation is fostered. I was concerend about various employees arrogant statement on multiple occasions that they could lend to riskier people than others were willing to because they were better at splitting risk. Capital One has been a leader in risk modeling but I would have appreciated more humility. Then again, they did not extend me an offer.

Question 1
What is the most significant accomplishment you have ever had?
3 rounds of interviews, technical round focused on domain of expertise. Then there was a case study round. Interviewer was interested in execution of clear thoughts on data along with written codes.
I was referred so first a game like assessment that tested basically middle school algebra skills. Then a business case power day with three different interviewers, two of them were analytical and one was product
R1 was VJT, which was fairly simple. R2 was a screening case study, and lastly a Powerday. Powerday was grueling and cases were math heavy (bank related as well). Would recommend the process.
