      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA (US)) in March 2019.

      Interview

      A campus recruiter reached out to me encouraging me to apply to the TDP program. After my application, I was scheduled to do an onsite interview (skipped straight past the phone screen). The onsite is broken into 3 parts - the case interview, technical interview, and behavioral interview. I thought the case interview was the hardest/most convoluted by far. The technical interview and the behavioral interview were both very standard.

      Interview

      Was pretty good. They fly you out on site and book you a flight if needed, etc.
      I felt I nailed the questions, but they are pretty selective so I don't know what happened. I'll give you the interview questions as they are. I remember every single question so please feel free to look up the answer ahead of time. Prior to the interview, I saw some of the interview questions on Glassdoor as well so they definitely reuse the questions

      Application

      I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Capital One in February 2019.

      Interview

      Applied on my university job board. Had an invitation for an on campus final round interview composed of 3 parts: behavioral, technical, and case interviews. Each part lasted about 45 minutes. Behavioral was decent, many questions asking about tell me a time...,etc. The case portion was not bad, it was mostly to show the interviewer how you think when you solve problems. The technical interview was probably the most challenging part, though the questions were not too bad, but rather since there is a time constraint and there is definitely more pressure when you are coding on paper while being assessed. The interviewers were really nice though, and despite not receiving the offer, I thought the interview process was a positive experience.

      Interview

      I applied online and they asked for an onsite(they only have one interview). There, they gave a tour of the headquarters, lunch then the interview. Interview is three parts: Behaviorial, Case, Technical. Behavioral was just about a project I've done and how I work with others. Case was weird because it was a coding + SW development with a business context. Techincal was pretty easy - know basic Data structures and algorithms and you should be fine.

      Average Interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Capital One (Atlanta, GA (US)) in September 2017.

      Interview

      I was invited to final round interviews at my university due to my participation in Capital One's Software Engineering Summit over the summer. My first interview was the case interview, which I thought was the most difficult out of the three. There's not much you can do to prepare apart from going through a few example cases to get a feel for what to expect. I wasn't afraid to admit when I didn't know something, and I tried to explain my thought process throughout the whole problem, which is what I think they are mainly looking at as you solve the case. My second interview was behavioral. I had a really great interviewer and although the questions were classic STAR format, it felt more like a conversation and went by pretty quick. The last was a technical job fit. I only got through 2 of the 3 technical questions (one design, one coding), but it was because my interviewer and I spent a long time talking about each. I wasn't perfect (my solution for the coding question wasn't 100% correct), but I was able to explain what I was thinking and what my code did. When the interviewer pointed out a case where my code didn't work, we worked towards a better solution that I figured out quickly after that. All in all, it was a long interview, but I enjoyed the process.
