      Dallas, TX
      Accepted offer
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (McLean, VA) in Jan 2024

      Interview

      Tedious and extremely time consuming. Power day is a set of 4 interviews where they assess you. They are ticking off a box for an hour they dont want to work. The interviews were moderate but the hands on technical interview was the one that hurt me. The guy spent the first twenty minutes talking about nonsense stuff he did at a theme park. He was over friendly and eventually was the only one that gave me a negative review even though he wasted majority of the time in something he wanted to talk to someone about. Recruiter was also not so helpful .Took them more than a week to give out a negative result, which was when I reached out as I did not hear back from them for so long.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Java questions where they will miss importing a library which will be the point of contention. They want you to know the libraries, type of classes -all of which can be solved by a simple google search but will comment on your ability for their own mistakes in the question presented.

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Capital One (Riverwoods, IL) in May 2026

      Interview

      So far it was just a coding assessment that I passed, but I didn't get all the questions right? Assessment was not necessarily difficult but if you've never seen a problem like the ones shown then it gets difficult to start the right way and then can quickly run out of time. About to head into the power day interviews.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Matrix style code assessment to traverse arrays of arrays in a specific manor.
