The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One in Oct 2011
Interview
The case given to us was new, so it took the interviewer a little longer to guide us through the process. The interviewer was really nice, and really prompted us to think about the details about the case and never once made me feel stupid or anything. I do not come from a business background, but the case was not too difficult either. As long as you get a decent night's sleep and can do some basic math, it should not be too difficult.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
When making the decision, other than the profit margin, what are other issues that you need to think of?
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.
