What you need to know about internal mobility

We aim to set a clear standard for associates applying internally across all of Capital One.

To be eligible to apply for a new role, there are 4 requirements you need to meet:

You've been in your current position, as noted in your Workday profile, for at least 6 months ¹ .

Your most recent performance rating at Discover is "Solid" or above.

You’re not currently on a Performance Improvement Plan or currently subject to a Final Written Warning review period.

You meet all Basic Qualifications (BQs) of the role.

Note: For a smooth experience, please apply to Capital One roles using your personal email–not your Discover email address.

At Capital One, applying for a role at a higher level than your current role is only permissible for roles at Capital One’s “Associate” level or below (e.g., Senior Coordinator to Principal Coordinator, Principal Coordinator to Associate). The majority of these roles are in Customer Operations and/or non-exempt. Because we have not yet mapped Discover levels to Capital One levels, compare the posted salary range to your current salary as a proxy to determine if this guideline applies to you.

¹ Associates impacted by job loss are not subject to the 6-month time in position restriction.
