Anonymous,
Case questions will obviously depend on the interviewer and the group you are trying to join. When I looked st the credit card side for example, I was given credit card related questions.
In general, I'd prepare for fairly demanding math questions centered around break even analysis and resolution of 3 equations / 2 unknowns problems
Hope this helps -
COF will definitely give you a case featuring a lot of math. I suggest you review the break-even formulas specifically. Type of questions would be "how will a shift in credit card take rate impact the break-even of this marketing campaign"
Everyone thinks that Capital One is all about heavy quantitative cases. And while its true that they do highly value analytical skills, they tend to ask a lot of short, rapid fire questions focused on assessing your conceptual thinking. They are a very innovative company and value creative thinking. So, be prepared to be tested on conceptual and quantitative types of questions versus structuring questions.
Hi!
To add on top of previous comments, in a nutshell: use the overall cases for MBB.
