Capital One Interview Questions

Application

I applied in-person. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Capital One (Nottingham, England) in December 2017.

Interview

It was brilliant. Two preliminary phone calls, an initial informal meeting then an intense half day interview with four stages: presentation about me, job fit interview, behavioural interview, creative task. At every stage the Capital One HR team were helpful and very accommodating (e.g. called me when I asked - even early in the morning, arranged for some interviews to take place outside of work hours). Overall a very positive experience, although it was tough but I would expect that for the position I was going for and it made me think how amazing the rest of the team who had also gone through the process must be - and now I'm here they are!

Interview

Initial round was hackerrank link to complete writing API's to save weather readings. Next round was telephonic interview with two people from the team and the next and final round was onsite interview which had 4 rounds - case interview, techincal interview -1, technical interview -2and behavioral interview. The guy who came in techincal interview was more interested in my visa status rather than asking technical questions. They have pretty standard questions , this guy was asking the same questions in telephonic round and onsite round. Questions like is java bass by value or ref, before you could answer he movies onto the next question. And the final behavioral interview consisted of pretty standard questions like describe a time where you had a conflict, deliver which in short amount of time etc. They guy who took my behavioral interview asked a question about why aws/. I answered few points like high availability, flexibility and ease of deployment. He was like cool , but I'm looking for one particular word.

The interview process is pretty unique. First, a HR representative reach out to me and we talked over the phone for 15 minutes. Then I was required to complete an online qualitative and quantitative tests. Following the on-line test, the hiring manager called me

Interview

The hiring process is pretty similar to other reviews. You get a thirty minute technical interview with the hiring manager. If they like you, they will invite you to their main campus of your area and have a full day of interviews. I had three: one behavioral, and two job fit. The behavioral asked pretty standard questions. The job fit was pretty focused on JavaScript technologies and the process in which you solve problems. I personally felt like I fell flat on my face during my job fit exercises (except with the Angular questions).

Interview

Phone Screen > Phone Case > Power Day (2 cases, 1 product, with behavioral questions in each).
Everything rides on passing the case interviews. Previous work experience and qualitative measures are not considered in this decision. Very simple mathematical errors will make your casers believe you didn’t pass primary school.

Interview

The entire process felt very well organized. It began with an on-site interview at college. After passing that, they drove us down to Richmond for a power day. There were 3 major parts; a case interview, a technical interview, and a Job fit.

Interview

Wasn't like any other i've seen on here. Thought it was just supposed to be a Phone screen with the Hiring Manager. But turned out to be two Senior devs.

They had pretty thick accents and their speaker phone kept have interference; making it hard to hear them.

Was quick introduction then into like 50 straight technical questions. No high level, conceptual ,leetcode programming problems or DS and Algorithms. Everything was extremely specific even about technologies/languages even some not on my resume.

Only feedback i got was ok, then next dev fired off another question.

Interview

Straight forward questioning based off the STAR method. Each interviewer asked around 4 or 5 questions and I gave detailed responses to each. There wasn’t much back forth, it was all based off how I used a strategic approach and came to a specific outcome. Second to a large panel interview at a major tobacco company, this was one of the toughest interviews I’ve been on. My advice is review any and all material the recruiter sends over, work on specific examples for each question and expect the unexpected. While I did not receive an offer it was a tremendous learning experience and helps with very specific times when I had to use critical thinking solving complicated problems.

The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital One (New York, NY (US)).

Interview

The usual interview process consists of 4 to 5 interviewers. Roughly half will be behavioral and the other will be technical.

In terms of what the interviews are like, the behavioral ones are just a a set of canned questions to determine that you are able to function as a human being.

The technical portion can vary significantly since it's just a random series of questions. If your interviewer is smart, your interview will be on the more difficult side. Mostly though, the interview process is fairly easy if you've done any work in the real world. The engineers that interviewed me were not very technical and knowledgeable. This resulted in a very easy interview.

If you want to work with the best and brightest, you will be disappointed. If I could lay off half the engineers there, I would.

This place advertises as a tech-oriented company but it's just fancy marketing to attract top talent. The turnover rate is extremely high here. Max career length for my team is 2 years with average being 6 to 9 months.
