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,

Which continous integration tool,

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 !

Estoy apenas recibiendo la propuesta de agenda para la entrevista, todo de una manera muy respetuosa y con mucha comunicación entre ambas partes, atendiendo cualquier incidencia que pueda darse, ajustes y entendimientos entre los participantes en la entrevista.

First round: 4 questions on an automated coding platform. First two were relatively easy and last 2 were difficult. Would suggest not prematurely optimizing.
Second round: 4 interviews on one day ("power day").

J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Capital One (McLean, VA) en mars 2026

Extremely disappointed. TLDR: 2/4 interviewers didn't know their questions and didn't even know Python (it was a Python coding round). They asked to rewrite the code in pseudo code and rewrite it using their logic. Thus, waste of time on 2/3 questions without being able to jump to the next one.
Another interviewer didn't know what a blob storage (s3) is and the the half of our system design round turned into SysDes 101 session where I explained the basics and he tried to show his interest (he didn't even look at the screen).
And at the end the recruited tried to sell me the Senior offer (huge cut). No thanks
