I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Capital One
Interview
Recruiter screening, mini-case with random PM. She didn’t even know what role I was applying for and acted super disinterested. Could tell case did not go well during interview. Not a great assessment for people with anxiety or people who prefer verbal communication as they throw a ton of info at you verbally about a product you’ve likely never used and expect you to have solid answers on the spot. Probably should download the app prior to the mini-case and look around if you actually care about moving ahead in the process.
Frist round included a virtual culture assessment. Online scenarios and options of what to chose so that they can see the types of decisions you make, not necessarily how you make these decisions.
The interview process was smooth overall. It started with a computer screening, followed by a 30-minute recruiter call focused on my experience and fit with Capital One. Then I had a one-hour “money case” discussing a Capital One product from different angles. I’ve now moved to the PowerDay round, which includes two product cases, one product skills round, and one product discovery round.
