J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Capital One (Richmond, VA) en déc. 2015
Entretien
One hacker rank test with 4 questions which can be easily passed. Second one is onsite in virginia.
3 onsite interviews with 1:1 , all of them are behavioral except last one. One of them in person and two of them remote. Technical interview is nearly a sham which bordered on ridiculousness. All in all two directors and one lead taking the interview.
As per their job description it gives engineering managers profile but lead is just individual contributor.
Typical bait and switch. Felt very bad after attending the process wasted one day. Confirm about roles before you proceed.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
What is REST service,
how do you design db schema,
do you know multithreading,
do you build tool (maven),
Which continous integration tool,
do you write unit test cases.
Nothing strong technically they will have a sheet to tick against and will go by it. More like a finance company. They call it job fit interview !
First had to pass an OA on codesignal.
Recruiter then scheduled a Power Day interview virtually:
1 Case interview -
1 Behavioral interview -
1 System design -
1 Technical
Questions are pretty standard and not too diffucult. Interviewers were friendly.

Question 1
1 Case interview - This one's unique. Have some product perspective to evaluate benefits/cons. Be prepared to evaluate logic based questions.

J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez Capital One en juin 2026
Entretien
I applied in February. Took an online technical assessment that comprised of four leetcode like problems. I wasn't able to finish them all, but somehow managed to pass. Some Capital One recruiter reached out to me, but for a different position. She told me that I passed the test. Okay that's nice, but what's next? Four months later and now in June, suddenly I have a Capitol One recruiter reach out to me about the position I applied to. She wants to schedule a Power Day interview with me.
The Power Day interview consists of a technical coding challenge, system design, behavioral, and a case study, four hours in total. Recruiter arranged a call with me to discuss what I should do to prepare; it's like you're basically studying for a final exam except you haven't spent a semester learning the material and need to spend a or two trying to study or learn system design especially if you have never done it like me.
On the actual Power Day, two of the interviewers seem nice and were more conversational. The other two technical interviewers feel like they were making jabs at my technical ability so I knew then that I wouldn't be getting the job.
Nevertheless, a few days after the interview. My recruiter reached out and asked me when was a good time to talk about the results. She called me and told me I did not pass and if I wanted to, I could try again in six months for other Capital One jobs.
Okay? Why didn't you just email this rejection notice instead of needing to tell about this through a call? Capital One thinks they're a FAANG company with the way they're conducting their interviews, but the salary you can potentially earn is nowhere near the FAANG companies.
