I applied online. I interviewed at Capital One in Feb 2026
Interview
I interviewed for the Senior Software Engineer position.
Feb 10 – Completed PowerDay interviews
Feb 12 – Received an email saying they would schedule a time to discuss results
Feb 17 – Informed that I passed but was being leveled down from Senior SWE to Senior Associate SWE
Currently in the team matching stage. HR mentioned that there isn’t a team available at the moment, so I need to wait for a match.
The interview process itself was structured and professional. Communication after PowerDay was relatively quick at first, but the team matching process feels uncertain and open-ended. HR responses have been somewhat slow, and there isn’t a clear timeline on next steps.
Overall, it seems that passing the interview does not guarantee an immediate offer — team availability plays a significant role.
Still waiting and hoping for an update.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you disagreed with your team and believed you were right.
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.

Code signal 4 questions. Power day is one coding question, system design, case study and behavioral.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Capital One (Ciudad de México) in May 2026
