I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in May 2017
Interview
Initially I spoke with a recruiter followed by a technical screen by the Hiring Manager. I was brought in for interview which in Capital One's terms is called Power Day. Power Day included 4 different interviewers each 45 minute each. There were 2 behavioral interviews which focused on What If questions and the other 2 were Job Fit interviews which focused on technical questions and your proficiency level.

Question 1
Just came on here to gripe about the coding test. For a data engineering job, these code riddles had NOTHING to do with data whatsoever. There were no SQL questions at all.
