I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Capital One (North York, ON) in Jun 2015
Interview
Called by HR to do phone interview and explain my background and what I am looking for. Also provided the basic salary range and benefits offered by CapitalOne. This was followed by an online test where you had to solve a few problems in any language of your choice. Finally an onsite interview involving technical interview and behavioral interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Write a function that returns the largest element in a list?
2. Given two strings, write a program that efficiently finds the longest common subsequence.
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.
