I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (San Antonio, TX) in Dec 2024
Interview
Was roughly 20 minutes over the phone and the interviewer asked me some simple scenario questions like "tell me about a time . . ." The process wasn't too bad other than the fact that I'm not the greatest at interviewing, but I managed to move onto the new interview and I have it coming up in a few days!

Question 1
Tell me about a time where you had to work together as a team to complete a common goal.
Interview process was not bad. 3 total interviews including recruiter call. I did two zoom interviews with the hiring manager and another manager from a different Cafe. It was a little unorganized.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (Cincinnati, OH) in Sep 2025
Interview
Process started with a recruiter interview then an interview with the hiring manager at the actual location. Followed by a back-to-back interview with two different regional hiring managers. The behavioral question did not really line up to the job description, in my opinion. The interview process is very long and I was disappointing to go through the lengthy process and not get a follow-up. I reached out to the recruiter over a week later and asked for an update just for them to send a moving forward with other candidates email days later. The process took over a month.

Interview
Very quick 5 minute phone call asking basic questions on why you chose the company and what qualifies you. Pretty easy to answer and doesn't need previous work knowledge. The recruiter seemed like they were ready to get the call over with.
