Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
The power day interview consisted of four interviews.
1. Product Design Case. Here you are presented with a problem (info given via ppt slides) and you work with the interviewer to come up with a solution.
Advice: Make sure your solutions address a customer pain point and make business sense. Try to consider the customer journey and where you would make improvements.
********************
2. Product Skills Interview. Talk about a product you managed/designed with 2 capital one product mangers.
Advice: Think through the product development process. What you did at each step. Why you did it. The value developed for the customer. How you measured success along the way. (And keep it friendly and conversational. Try to imagine a world where you do not have interview anxiety and that this could be fun!)
********
Analyst Case: Solve a business problem. Here, the interviewer asks you questions in phases to get to the root of a business problem. This is a typical business case.
Advice: The example in the preparation packet is pretty close to what you end up doing. Also, If you can solve mckinsey style cases, you should be good for this case. Check out youtube for examples. Victor Chang's Business Situation Framework is good to have in your back pocket. Also be prepared for market sizing.
****************
4. Behavioral Interview. Often with a Software Engineer/Tech lead.
Advice: Think about what the interviewer may want to know. For the example of the tech lead, it could be things like... what are your technical chops? How do you play nice with others? What are some things you do to regularly advance your skills? What can you do for him/her? Traditional behavioral questions: Why Product? Why this job? etc. are also applicable.
Come prepared with questions for all interviewers, but especially the behavioral interviewer.
GOOD LUCK!!!
The interview process was smooth overall. It started with a computer screening, followed by a 30-minute recruiter call focused on my experience and fit with Capital One. Then I had a one-hour “money case” discussing a Capital One product from different angles. I’ve now moved to the PowerDay round, which includes two product cases, one product skills round, and one product discovery round.

Interview had 4 rounds: assessment, recruiter, hiring manager, and Power Day. The Power day was 4 30 min interview sessions with other managers. It was pretty straight forward, just prepare some STAR based experiences.
Interview process included a first round HR screen, a second round mini case study, and a power day final round followed by a team match. Recruiter was very helpful throughout the process
