I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Capital One in Feb 2011
Interview
This was the first round case interview. Spent a few minutes discussing the position/my qualifications then got straight into the case.
Much more numbers based rather than strategy. Question was Subway owner adopting $5 foot long promotion. Needed to use weighted average. Huge plus is they'll let you use a calculator. Although the math was simple and straight forward, it definitely helps if you get nervous.
Got a second round in a few weeks.
1 online assessment followed by Power Day with 1 product and 2 cases. Power Day was quite tricky with concepts being combined and tested in different forms. Staying calm and taking in every word is crucial in keeping up with the casing.

The interviewer was friendly he asked me Quantitative questions on a streaming platform, too much math involved. I did not reach the answer though the interviewer tried to help so got the rejection.

I thought I did really well, but they emailed me back in a few hours, rejecting me. This was for the online test before the power day, and they didn't even give me a score.
