Anonymous Interview Candidate in New York, NY
I applied online. I interviewed at Capital One (New York, NY) in Sept 2023
First round was with a recruiter. These were the questions I got. Tell me about yourself? Why are you interested in this role? What is your process in designing a product? Tell me about a time when you worked with others on a team. 2nd round was a mini case, no behavioral questions. It will be on either the Capital One Shopping browser extension, the Capital One Virtual Card Numbers widget or the Capital One Mobile App. If you pass this round then the next round is a super day (4 hours of interviews in one day with breaks in-between). After that is a behavioral interview with a senior person where they deep dive on your experiences.
- I got the Cap One Shopping Browser Exten Case. It's not like the traditional produce sense cases where you are improving a feature or product, they just go straight into questions. First question I was asked was, beyond the revenue stream what value does this product bring to Capital One? (Why would capital one build this product) As a PM for Capital One, you want to personalize offers via Capital One Shopping through targeted email offers. Identify which products you would send to customers to increase the number of purchases with a referral link. Then I was shown a draft email and asked how I would improve it. Then I was shown some metrics for before and after changing the personalized marketing emails and asked what my observations were. Those were all the questions. I didn't pass this round.

The interview process was very lengthy: there was the initial interview with a recruiter which was then followed by 4 rounds of interviews with other product staff. The final one is Power Day: 4 hours of back-to-back interviews so it's pretty intense.
- They asked that I not share the interview questions.

irrelevant calculations. they make you do maths on things and areas that weren't applicable to the interview scope or job scope. I asked for clarity on the data i was shown to understand the essence of calculations, the interviewer would not
- should the bank continue to invest or not

Round 1 is a mini case with behavioral questions. Round 2 is a power day that is 4 hours long with 2 consulting cases, 1 product design case, and 1 behavioral case. Similar to what the other interviews said, if you don't do well on all parts you likely won't get it. The 4 hours is very taxing and it sucks they don't give you any feedback on which section didn't go well after interviewing you for such a long time.
- Why Capital One, Why PM, choose between different email campaigns and say which one is better, calculate profit/breakeven/etc.

1) 30 minutes call with recruiter 2) 1 hour mini product review case study with member of leadership team, 3) power day (5 interviews). All interviews were conducted over phone and zoom.
- Product mini case review based on their CapOne Shopping app... 1. Before/after of a direct marketing email - what changed? what are your concerns? how would you improve? 2. Data analysis test - presented with a 4 sets of app usage and conversion metrics . Interpret the results, which test is best, what other metrics would you want to see? 3. You are working with a technology team who can't work on your stuff for 6 months. What would you do and say to convince them that your stuff is more important and should be worked on first? 4. Describe / list out the technical components of a direct mailing email campaign 5. What are the value adds of the Cap One shopping app? A couple gripes ... The shopping app was unrelated to my experience and the job I was applying for. .. When I was told that I did not pass the R1 interview I was disappointed (fine I'll get over it), but then shocked to learn that: 1) I would no longer eligible to pursue a second product manager position that I was simultaneously interviewing for ( I had a R1 interview that was scheduled but then cancelled) AND 2) I would no longer be eligible to apply to any more product manager positions at Capital One for the next 6 months (!!)

Multi step interview process led by an internal recruiter. Short (30-60min) first interview with a Product Case, then a "Power Day" that is about five hours with 5 interviews (need to take a day off work for it). Fully remote. Pretty easy experience interview-wise.
- Ran through a lot of quantitative analysis.

Difficult consulting style business cases that didn’t apply to the internal technical Product. Study materials stopped far short of the complexity found on the calls. Very clear one of the interviewers did not want to be on the call, was annoyed by questions and terse.
- Graphs, solving for % discount, etc.

First, there was a quick call with the recruiter. The recruiter walked me through the process. She was amazing! The second round was with the hiring manager. He was great! The third round was a mini case with a Director whose attitude was extremely poor. He seemed disengaged and looked like he is making me a huge favor for interviewing me, rolled his eyes, and was extremely arrogant. I don't want to work for this company!
- Great questions and an interesting process. Frankly, the interviewers attitude completely demotivated me to even continue the conversation. I feel bad for not stopping the interview half-way and save my time. I also prepped a week for this interview to see him rolling eyes.

First they have an interview that goes over behavioral and short case studies. Then they have 5 Case Studies that are a Hour+ each spread over days. They messed up my schedule and made me get on a call while I was on a break. The interviewer had an accent and just said the whole case study instead of presenting the power point slide. This case study had a lot of calculations that I needed to keep track of. After the interviews I had to reach out after a week or so even though I was told I will find out in 2 days from the recruiter. It was a huge waste of time (7+ hours) and I was told I would be able to take a survey of the interview process which never happened. Horrible experience and I will definitely be avoiding any applications to the company in the future and suggesting the same to people in my network.
- Tell me a situation where you made mistake.

Recruiter reached out to me. I had one interview with the recruiter, and a couple weeks later, one with the hiring manager. Did mention there was a power day, but I did not reach it.
- Tell me about your design process.
