I applied online. I interviewed at Capital One (Fredericksburg, VA) in Apr 2013
Interview
First a phone interview which was very simple and the lady was very friendly. She asked me if I was comfortable working in the sales environment and if I had any previous sales focused roles. Then I was scheduled for a face to face with the district manager. DONT BE NERVOUS! This manager knew I was nervous and he told me. He asked me alot of questions:- tell me about yourself, why Capital One? What do you like about banking? Are you competitive & elaborate?, What motivates you? How much sales experience have you had? What is something you need to improve on? What is your best trait? What is the one thing that sales professionals need to be? - confident, proactive etc. We also did a role play.
