I applied through college or university. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Capital One in Mar 2012
Interview
I applied through my university's recruiting process (sent a resume)
First step was an on campus case interview -- unlike other 'case interviews' there are clear right and wrong answers; some are mathematical, others probe at your business intuition (many of the cases are about consumer banking/lending/credit)
Then came an online math test and personality test
Then 'super day' -- case interviews and one personality/social fit interview
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
After being explained about the definition of an affinity card (affiliated with a university, sports team, etc.), why might a credit card company offer affinity cards? (Give several reasons)
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.
