I applied online. I interviewed at Capital One in Jan 2017
Interview
Straight forward interview, if you study common algorithms/data structure questions you should be great. The case interview can be tricky so review the information they provide on it. You will have 3 onsite interviews then they should get back to you in 2-3 days.
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA) in Mar 2017
Interview
Met them on campus and applied online. I was contacted over email asking if I could come down to the Richmond location from Maryland. The follow up email contained a lot of prep material and details about the day. Capital One put me in a hotel and paid for my expenses for the whole trip.
After arriving at the campus, we were split into groups of ~4 and taken on a tour by current employees. Thiis part was informal and my guide was very easy going and answered a lot of our questions about the work environment and how the rotations work.
The formal part of the interview had 3 parts, behavioral (pretty standard), technical, and case. The technical part was a few coding questions on the whiteboard. While not terribly difficult, it is hard to think of all the different input cases so make sure to consider all possibilities when coding. The case interview for the technical position was not like the prep (business) video they sent. It was basically a coding problem in a business setting. The coding part was pretty easy but for this part they care more about your problem solving and analytical skills.

Interview
I was notified of an interview about a week before that would take place on campus of my university. The entire interview process was about 3 hours, with 3 types of interviews: behavioral, job fit, and case interview. The behavioral and case interview were straightforward, and my interviewers were laid back; the case interview was short and not too difficult at all, only requiring some simple math. The job fit/technical interview was a bit rushed, I was asked a few additional behavioral questions and we didn't have enough time to fully solve each problem I was given.
