I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA) in Nov 2011
Interview
First the standard telephone screen. Then you must take 2 or 3 online assessment tests. If you pass those, then you are brought in for a 4 hour in person interview. This is made up of three parts: 1. Behavioral, 2 - Use Case, 3 - Job Fit.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A typical behavioral interview will be done in two parts, each part will have three questions (six questions total). This part of the interview is focused on the candidate telling how they did something (not what they would do, but what they actually did). Some example questions: 1- Tell me when you had to learn something new at work. 2 - Tell me when you had to convince others to go along with your ideas instead of their own.. etc.. Give as much detail as possible - they want to see people that think independently and not wait around for someone to tell them what to do etc)..
Recruiter Call, Mini Case and then a power day with 2 case studies and 1 product case study. Process was overall smooth. Appropriate documents and resources were provided to prep for the interview.
The interview was based on 3 phases. First was screening on call then a video interview with mini case then a power day with 3 phases including product interview, case based and economics based.
First, Screening call: the HR simply walked you thru the interview process and schedule the next round of interview - mini-case. I haven't done the mini case yet. Mini case, just search online for potential cases and prepare for it.
