Entrevista
I was contacted by a recruiter to apply for a Data Scientist position. The experience with the recruiter was very pleasant. Like many other reviews have mentioned, Capital One has a four phase interview process, which are (1) HackerRank quiz; (2) Technical phone interview; (3) Independent data problem; and (4) On-site interview.
I'm not a formally trained computer scientist (EE background), but I found the HackerRank quiz to be pretty straightforward. I was contacted shortly after completing the quiz to schedule a phone interview.
For the phone interview, I spoke with a data scientist at an office that would be different from the one I was being interviewed for. I was asked an ill-defined question about how to develop a model for predicting credit card fraud, given a vague set of feature data. Ultimately, I don't think the interviewer liked my approach, as I received notification from the recruiter about one week later that the hiring manager was not interested in proceeding.

I had an interview with the hiring manager, and she started to ask about my CV and went through the details of each project, and also asked additional questions about each project, what would happen if we do this or that
The recruiter call me and after a 30 min meeting with HR they set me up for interview with the manager, but no one showed up and they never responded my email
Two technical rounds with case studies and coding + SQL. Coding was just LC easy level and SQL was a bit more challenging but being comfortable with all the key words should be good enough.
