I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Apr 2011
Interview
Received a call from an HR recruiter who pre-screened me. A senior recruiter emailed me almost immediately and sent me the job description and steps to follow to apply to the job requisition through the Capital One website. I applied online and he called a few days later to explain the position more in-depth and ask me a few questions, mainly about salary requirements and relocation. He then emailed me links to the online tests. I practiced using the links they provided for a few days to make sure that I would pass. The numerical reasoning section is simple but if you haven't practiced it can take time. I took the culture assessment, math, and verbal, in that order, a few days later. I emailed the senior recruiter and let him know that I had finished the exam. He responded right away that I had passed. I am waiting to get my final interview soon.

Question 1
If the number of responses was 15% greater than last year, how many responses were there last year?
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.
