Very straightforward interview. Phone screen with recruited + a general coding assessment via CodeSignal. Moved on to 'power day' of 4 interviews. 1h each. Systems design, code challenge, business case, and behavioral. Interviews were extremely on rails.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (Fairfax, VA) in May 2022
Interview
This recollection is from a 2022 interview for DevOps position.
You'll take a coding assessment; after passing it'll be interviews.
I had 4 interviews, ranging from 40min to an hour long. One was HR and softskills. The other three were with different technical staff from varied departments/projects. In the fourth interview, it was a whiteboard problem-solving section.
As a side note though the title says Senior the role internally was Principal level. One thing to note was that the interview wasn't directly for a specific team. I was informed they will review and see if you fit within any available project/teams under that role's umbrella.
