I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One in Apr 2012
Interview
I applied this position from the website and then received an email to do online assessments, including Numerical Reasoning and Verbal Reasoning. For numerical part, questions are very easy; for reasoning part, the time is very limited, and I did not finish them. However, after one day, I was told that I had passed this assessment, and I got a phone interview with one of the statisticians. On the phone, he only asked technical questions without any behavior or general question. After that, I was rejected.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One in Nov 2015

Also, my programming language level was asked. There were also some standard technical questions like p-value, overfitting, cross-validation.
