J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Capital One (Chicago, IL) en janv. 2023
Entretien
Four step process interview, first one was simple hr interview and second was an assessment which was scored out of 1200 points. I got 1000 and still didn't make it past for some reason even though they said if I get at least 600 points I'll move on. I feel like they are just fishing for resumes because the job has been listed for months now and highly doubt no developers have been able to meet their 'standards'. Waste of time
J'ai passé un entretien chez Capital One (McLean, VA)
Entretien
Interviewed for an engineer position, the interview was a joke. Asked basic OOP question with a few follow ups - no system design portion. Interviewer was very laid back and chill, didn't take it to seriously.
Was not too difficult. three total interviews all on the same day back to back. technical one, behavioral one and a case which was more of just a debugging question
Expecting a challenging experience, I found the interview at Capital One to be intense, particularly during the system design section. The question on designing a rate limiter with a token bucket algorithm took me by surprise; mid-way through the problem, I realized it was very similar to a drill I’d practiced on prachub.com just days earlier. The technical rounds included several DSA questions, and the interviewers were thorough but supportive. Ultimately, I received an offer and happily accepted, feeling well-prepared despite the pressure.
