I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA)
Interview
Process started with phone call with HR. Then after you pass that and the coding assessment they send you, you do 4 interviews (mine were on zoom).
There are 2 tech interviews, which I believe they call Job Fit interviews now. They’re leet code style questions, but can be tricky to do on the spot while sharing your screen. So make sure to practice medium difficulty coding questions on leetcode.
Next was a behavioral interview, not bad. It was the “tell me about a time when…” style.
Lastly was the case interview, which is a poor option to make software engineer do, in my opinion. This is a more business oriented question, and I can’t remember much more details than that.
The interview was relatively difficult, but not impossible if you prepare well. I just think putting people through hours of interviews asking questions that don’t correlate to what you’ll actually be doing in your role is pointless.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you had a disagreement with a co worker.
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.
