I interviewed at Capital One (Toronto, ON) in May 2015
Interview
The process has changed this year. I was called by the HR for regular conversation and at the end of the interview, given 4 numerical problems to solve. It's mandatory to get all four right to go to the next stage. I couldn't make it, but the problems were fairly simple to solve.
OA then hiring manager screen (nothing technical, just mutual introductions), then I am completely ghosted. Sent follow-up, no response. At least have the decency to say that you've gone with other applicants.
Only gone through the initial HR interview process so far. Waiting to go through OA and power day. Applied mid June. Got an answer end of June/ early July. Seemed like just a screening of the resume so far. Nothing substantial yet.
I applied online. I interviewed at Capital One (New York, NY) in Apr 2026
Interview
I passed the HR interview and manager round. There are 4 back to back interview meetings for the Superday. the interview process is smooth and friendly. HR helped me a lot to get familiar with the process.
