I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital One (Plano, TX) in Jan 2015
Interview
They put me one the speaker while talking. Basic statistics questions about mean, SD, CI, multicollinearity(with some other information).
normal distributed, SD=10, what you can get from this.
CI 95% 5% 6%, explain.
something about respond rate(forgot)
If you impute the income by the mean, what will happen to the credit card company. Explain your answers. (Large amount of data or small amount, what will happen when lower income was replaced, how about higher income)
Hope this will help and good luck.

Question 1
you are given a data set of alumni donation with 5000 predictors, we want to know how you will predict whether a given alumni will donate or not. What would you do
The first round interview is a phone screening. I was just asked about Visa issues, expected annual income, graduation day and the preferred location. The person from HR spread out the resume to the department after the phone screening interview and each department contacts whether it moves forward or not.
