I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital One
Interview
First round is two 30 minute case interviews. The cases weren't bad - very quantitative, no calculator but the numbers are fairly round and pretty easy to do in your head or on paper. Paper is provided for you. The interviewers will help you if you get off track or get confused. The sample case that they provide is a pretty accurate representation of what the actual cases look like. There are math questions and ideas about general business administration/marketing.
