The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital One in Feb 2011
Interview
Pretty easy case interview. As long as you understand the question, you will solve it....I feel kind of nervous at the first beginning, so make some silly mistakes, but overall it is pretty easy comparing to other case interview.
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (Plano, TX) in Nov 2022
Interview
It was relatively relaxed, first there was a phone screening, and then a power day. Power day consisted of three interviews, one behavioral, one case and one job fit. Typical case interview, gives you information on a company and asks what you see.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA) in Apr 2015
Interview
It was a great experience. The campus locates in Richmond, VA is huge with very nice interview environment. Each of the interviewees has a small room and interviewer will come direct to you. The on site interview has a long schedule, which I did four interviews in one morning. It was tired.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you deal with the project outside of your comfort zone?
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA) in Oct 2013
Interview
Started with a 40 minute phone interview with a recruiter. At the end of the interview, I was invited to go out to Virginia for the final 4 interviews.
First Interview- Job fit. Basically questions about your past and how you came to apply.
Second interview- Case. I was working in a commercial bank with a diversified portfolio of loans. Someone wants a loan to open a McDonalds in a new Airport terminal. What are the risks associated with operating a McDonalds inside an airport. Then, with the loan at 4%, how much interest will the McDonalds be paying every year.
They then give you an alternative McDonalds, with a higher rate. Hint: What they are looking for here is attention to P/L and how it effects the balance sheet and further, how the equity is effected in the market.
Third Interview- Behavioral. She was a little late, but otherwise looked uninterested. These were situational questions. Like, Tell me about a time when....
Fourth Interview- Case. (I had to do an additional one since I didn't get recruited on Campus)
Affinity credit card. Tie a credit cared to your school. You pay the school X amount per year. You get 12% in APR and $20 in annual fees. Your costs are a,b,c. (Cost of funds, SGL and default rate)
Then, the school wants to buy the entire program. They offer you $15 per card holder, using the information you have, figure out what a negotiator should expect to offer.
Everyone was nice and relatively friendly.
