I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Capital One (New York, NY) in June 2011
Interview
Recruiter contacted me about the position I applied online and set up a phone interview. She asked detailed questions about my work experience but in the end said my data analysis experience was not strong enough. And on top of that, they are "looking for people with prior industry experience" which I found contradicting to what they emphasized in the beginning--someone smart and very analytical. Anyway the experience was quick which is good in some way. I think they just don't want to train people instead they are looking for experienced hires.

Started with an OA, and then proceeded to data challenge, and afterwards it was Power Day which had 4 rounds of interview. 2 of them were more problem-solving, and one of them was walking through the data challenge

I applied through university. I interviewed at Capital One (Plano, TX)
Interview
1) CodeSignal proctored test. Tests analytical prowess and SQL. Time is tight, with increasingly difficult questions. You have to pass to move on.
2) Data Challenge. Python coding challenge to answer 5 questions. You need to merge/ clean your dataset and make a recommendation. You present it during power day.
3) Powerday. 4 interviews back to back. 2 case interviews, 1 behavioral interview, 1 data challenge interview.
Powerday 4 rounds back to back. One data challenge presentation , two cases and one behavior round. Overall easy and it was a nice experience. Interviewers responded the follow up questions detailedly.
