I applied online. I interviewed at Capital One (New York, NY) in Feb 2026
Interview
Invited to insight day and then taken through two "interview prep" sessions including a coffee chat with an analyst and a conversation with the recruiter. Super day: 3 45min interviews back to back, two seniors and an associate (all but one were quite cold). Most technical part was the case study but you just had to walk through your thought process when evaluating a company based on it's financials. Technical interviewee also grilled me on aspects of my resume, asking questions that I didn't really understand but keeping it flowing as a conversation (on my side) helped.
