I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Mar 2022
Interview
The interview was broken into several distinct stages -- first was standard HR screener call. Next was an informal half hour video meeting with the hiring manager. Following this, a pass/fail mini-case interview. The mini-case was extremely caser-led, so if you have basic case interview competency it should be fairly easy. Following the mini-case is "Power Day". This consists of 4 back-to-back hour long interviews: analyst case, product design case, product sense interview, and fit interview. While less than the mini-case, the case interviewers are still caser-led, so if you actively listen and let the caser direct you when needed, it should go fine. I highly recommend spending significant time preparing for the case interviews if you're not familiar with the format. You will not be successful "winging it"
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For this role many of the questions across the different interviews are designed to get a sense of how you navigate bringing stakeholders to your way of thinking, mitigate conflict, etc.
The interview process consisted of 1 phone interview, 1 interview with a person at capital one, and 3- 4 hours of interviews for case review. The super day interviews were 2 cases with math and 2 more behavioral/walk me through your experience interviews.

Question 1
Tell me about a time where you had to take the lead on a project as an associate PM.
Almost a 3 month process. I wouldn't recommend continuing to Power Day unless you're ready for the time investment it will take to prepare. Also keep in mind they put a lot of weight towards the quant questions
first interview is with hiring manager - easy 30 min intro. Then a product case 1 hr interview for round 2. Then a power day 4 hr interview with 4 people for round 3.
