I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Capital One
Interview
- Recruiter screening - typical questions - Why CapitalOne, tell me about your current role etc
- HM round - why CapitalOne; situational questions
In both rounds, the recruiter and HM were constantly distracted - the recruiter mentioned their slack was blowing up and the HM was barely listening. Note: I have solid PM experience and domain knowledge from FAANG. Felt disrespected throughout the interview process. Oh and they never bothered to reach back out closing the loop. If a candidate can free up 45 mins in a day, the interviewers should atleast show the courtesy back to the candidate.
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.

Interview
Interview had 4 rounds: assessment, recruiter, hiring manager, and Power Day. The Power day was 4 30 min interview sessions with other managers. It was pretty straight forward, just prepare some STAR based experiences.
