The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Capital One in Nov 2011
Interview
The process was very smooth. They payed for dinner the night before the interview and we had time to talk with some of the employees. The next day we each got our own room and three sets of interviewers came to interview each of us. Over the course of about 4 hours they interviewed us. One complaint was that they informed me of my no offer by email and did not provide me with any feedback.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Jan 2012
Interview
Recruiter #1 contacted me via Linkedin.
Recruiter #2 followed up with a couple phone calls
Invited to attend 'power day' of interviews
Power day consisted of 2 'case studies' and 2 behavioral interviews.
Then a case study after lunch. If you are not invited back after lunch you will not be getting an offer.
Behavioral interviews are the basic 'tell me when....' type questions.
The cases are not your normal business school cases. You are given some metrics as assumptions then breakdown the algebra. A high-school student could do these. There is little analytic thought required. The majority I heard of were all break-even related.
