Partners events | Capital One live online career challenge

Following the success of our recent live online career challenges with Capital One, we are pleased to present our promo video.
How will you spend 2022?
2020 and 2021 were interesting years for all of us and they changed where everyone spent their time and money. Understanding how, when and where our customers spend money is important to us and we use peoples past behaviour to understand what they might do next.The time of year, the types of shops and the amount people spend all change, and we need to understand that so we can best support our customers.
Join us in our live online career challenges to find out the different questions we ask ourselves and the data we use to help answer them.
FIRST STEP CAREER CHALLENGE:
What are you saving up for? A PS5? Concert tickets? The latest trainers?
Help us to understand how different people manage their money, and whether they can meet their savings goals!
NEXT STEP CAREER CHALLENGE:
Did you spend your money differently during lockdown? A lot of people did!
Using our data, can you tell us how people’s spending habits changed? What do you think will happen in 2022?
STEP UP CAREER CHALLENGE:
How will you spend 2022? Can you help us predict how and where people will spend their money?
