I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Oct 2021
Interview
A coding challenge conducted on code signal is the first step. I received the challenge fairly quickly after applying. I got ¾ of the problems correct with some code for the 4th problem which I didn't finish.
I moved on to the next phase which was a set of 3 interviews. The interviews were 1h each, and each had separate goals. One was purely behavioral and asked about a number of items on my resume. One was purely technical and involved narrating while solving a coding challenge on linked lists and some simple object oriented problems. The linked list coding challenge was more difficult than I expected, I spent 45 minutes on the problem. The last interview was a technical case where I was asked some generic product management type questions about how to make a chatbot service more impactful. The case interview also included some code and assessment of how to improve the code (the coding in this section was very simple). The interviewers were all very professional, personable, and welcoming, as was my recruiter. I had a great experience overall.
A few days after my last interview I was given an offer. I am a white male UT Computer Engineering Student with a fairly strong resume and a previous tech internship at P&G for reference.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioral interview questions were fairly generic. Technical interview and coding challenge questions were comparable to the easier Leetcode Mediums or easys. I would recommend practicing talking through your reasoning outloud on a coding challenge to prepare for the technical interview.
Power day, one case, one behavioral, one technical. Very smooth. Interviews were very nice, helpful, and engaging. No trick questions all your interviewers want you to succeed. Case was a little tricky, though.
Very direct nice interviewers, the questions are relatively easy but there were two cycles when i took it, they reopened for one day in the spring. recruited reached out to me through handshake to let us know about it.
Normal powerday interview. It was pretty easy, normal OOP techincal with a banking question, case interview was a little harder. Behavioral was normal. Focus on OOP concepts. All interviewers were really nice and helpful.
