Entrevista
They claimed they needed contact software engineers on a contract basis, but after 18 months is was a mandatory layoff folowed by a 6 month waiting period. The pay rate was below average for software contract engineer. The panel interview was disorganized and all they asked were a series of closed-ended questions about C++ and general random software concepts such as multithreading. If you memorize a C++ book and buzzwords in job description, you might pass the interview. If one of your answers doesnt exactly fit what they are thinking, you fail the interview. If this is how Wells Fargo treats software developers, I am glad I got turned down for the job and not working at Wells Fargo.
But my best advice to pass the interviews there are memoize a good C++ book well before the interview, and brush up on your computer science fundamentals or whatever buzzwords are in job description. Be prepared for answering "closed ended" memorization questions.

The interview was good. After the behavioral questions I got asked a bunch of OOP and high level system design questions. The interviewer was polite throughout and gave me hints when I was stuck or couldn't remember something specifically.

The recruiter was helpful and professional, and took the time to explain the process and the role in detail.
However, my experience with the hiring manager was less positive. During the conversation it felt like the communication style was quite condescending, with an assumption that others lacked understanding of the topics being discussed.
Overall, the recruiting process itself was organized well, but the interaction with the hiring manager made me reconsider whether this would be the right team environment for me.
