I applied through other source. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Feb 2014
Interview
Initial phone screen with SVP, then VP and recruiter. Took 4 months to schedule the in-person interview (I went back to SVP to inquire about the delay). I have extensive relevant product experience and have always been viewed as a top performer in my jobs so felt I would be a great match and asset based on phone conversations. Was told that although data analysis wasn't requirement for Product role, every candidate had to go through Case interview (which was completely foreign to me and several other people I spoke to). Studied the examples they provided and felt semi-prepared but knew this would not be my strong suit. Ended up having THREE Case interviews in a row...followed by 2 behavioral. By the time the behavioral rolled around, I was drained and not at my best.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The behavioral was pretty standard "tell me about a time..." type questioning. I asked one of the Case interviewers if I was getting the "easy" Case questions (e.g. Break-even analysis) given I was applying for product role, and was told no - and this one is "really hard" :/
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Capital One in July 2024
Interview
Consists of 4 different types of business case interviews. Took over a month to schedule 3 of them. Required you to do random math and remember a series of information. Not sharing the details on a screen made it extremely difficult to keep track of all the different data points. Very confusing.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Sept 2019
Interview
HR was friendly and I found the hiring manager also to be very cordial and professional. Questions were pointed and they were very focused on "product intent." Product is very much a respected discipline at Capital One.

Question 1
I initially spoke with a recruiter over the phone, then the hiring manager over the phone, and then attended a power day interview session which consisted of behavioral questions and case interviews.
