Me postulé a través de un reclutador. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Capital One (McLean, VA) en oct 2022
Entrevista
The process was dysfunctional and probably dishonest. They probably don't have as many real job openings as their postings. They are just fishing for resumes. If you apply, they'll ask you to take a coding test on codesignal.com. If you get a good score, they'll ask you to do 4 interviews with their staff made up of 2 coding tests, 1 design, and 1 psychological.

They didn't ask anything about the software development frameworks listed on my resume. They asked for two coding tests in bad faith. The recruiter had set the conditions in email as my choice of programming language. Both coding interviewers had no expectations of offering me a choice and each was surprised when I asked. I had to settle for their choices. With so many different languages in common use, these people had no decency to tell me which ones I was required to code in -- on top of violating their own written conditions.
4 rounds of interview including coding , design , case study, behavioral after clearing the code signal assesment. Coding was medium hard of 2 questions each. case study and system design was difficult.
This took a bit longer than expected, stretching over several weeks. The technical rounds were intense, featuring an LRU cache implementation and a problem on detecting duplicate transactions within a 60-second window. I was nervous at first, but it clicked for me when I realized I had practiced a similar approach on PracHub just days before. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive an offer in the end, but the experience was a solid learning opportunity. The behavioral questions felt straightforward, so I wish I had made a stronger impression in the technical segments.
