Interviewed at the London, UK office. Applied online and referenced having met four Capco employees at two different recruitment events. Within a week I received initial emails from their HR manager, asking me to complete an online video interview. Clicking the link, I received three questions and had sixty seconds to answer them - the online portal gives you 30 seconds to think, and automatically films for 60 seconds, then stops. A few days later I received another email inviting me to an assessment centre. The dress code was business casual but sadly my blazer was away for dry cleaning, but they didn't mind. We were separated into groups to perform various tasks: an English and mathematics test (easy), a rapid speed-dating-interview session for four minutes with four different employees, and finally a Q&A session with current Associates having completed the programme. The Associates pushed the idea that Capco is a welcoming company with a great and diverse pool of employees from every background, including military, english majors, and psychology majors. Finally, we changed groups and completed the case study, which was a 20 minute ticking clock including time for presentation. Ultimately I received an invitation to come to final interviews the following week, where I met two HR managers and subsequently had a partner interview. Everyone was genuinely warm and pleasant and I believed the interview went well and that we established a great rapport. They said afterwards that they would get back to me within one week with the results. Two weeks later I received a call where they said no, saying I 'lacked dedication to financial services' and that my background could have been more relevant. Odd, considering I have a masters in finance but admittedly from some conversations with my network the company has been very strange in who they hire this year specifically - one friend had an offer from Germany but was turned down in London. Either way it was a great interview experience.

Application - tests- online interview - Assessment evening - Final interview. I went though all the process and my friends and I are waiting for ages for the result after final interview. Really bad recruitment team and really bad management system in graduate recruiting. No communication at all after final interview. We wrote numerous emails without replying and they just evaporate. Irresponsible! Not a contingent case. A lot of my friends who is applying and went through final interview are facing this. Even one called them and they just say” oh by the way, forgot to tell you, no offer.”
