Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Capital One (McLean, VA) en mar 2026
Entrevista
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

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").
