I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One in Sept 2024
Interview
Contacted by a recruiter.
This was followed a 70 minute, proctored, online coding challange via Code Signal.
This was followed by a 4 hour gauntlet of online, virtual interviews with various employees. Including a coding challenge, two case studies and a behavioral interview.
Oddly enough, the members of Capitol One leadership I met during the interview seemed completely unfamiliar with their company's own hiring process.
Following the 4 hour interview I was rejected a few days later. Recruiter adamantly refused to give ANY feedback. Citing company policy and some vague, non-specific regulations. Not even so much as a "you did poorly on X section" or "you failed to demonstrate Y skill".
This was followed up with an additional slap in the face of a suggestion that in six months I could re-apply and spend another day of PTO and 4 + more hours to go through the dog-and-pony show. Again, adamantly refusing to give any sort of hint or indication as to what I could do to achieve a more favorable result.
Disgusting lack of respect and professional courtesy towards job candidates.

Other Senior Software Engineer interview reviews for Capital One
Power day style interview, two coding, one system design, one behavioral. Everyone was nice, but the interviewers seemed a little under prepared and/or new to interviewing in general. Questions where essentially leetcode medium/hard almost word for word.

Question 1
Leetcode Count primes, looking for optimal solution
Code assessment then to power day interview with 4 rounds. Overall the power day interviews were okay except for the case study. The interviewer was disengage while being on their phone the whole time. There was a part where the interviewer said fix the mistakes then went back to their phone. I pointed out their code has other errors with template and was ignored. Then while attempting to fix those (10 mins later) they mentioned to ignore that part and focus on the very bottom part of the code. What a waste of time and very unprofessional. This makes me wager a few of the interviewers probably could not pass their own interview process today.
