I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Capital One in Mar 2020
Interview
4 rounds with total including initial phone call about the opportunity. Second and third rounds with the team, and the final round with the hiring manager and the lead. Except the first round, the other rounds were about an hour. Pretty much about the technologies experience in the job description and on my resume. Plus some coding.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was given small piece of code, and asked to explain what it does, and what would be the results of given input examples.
Recruiter screening to begin with. Then, technical discussion about java, spring boot, design pattern, small coding tasks and followed by design assessment for distributed systems. Finally, managerial round for the team fit
Scheduled a call with recruiter. Recruiter didnt show up for the screening call and cancelled it 5 mins after the scheduled time. Dropped a follow up email and got no response. After a week, I got an email from the recruiter stating I am selected for the next round i.e Assessment. Sent me an email with the assessment description but no link. When I sent a follow up email asking for the link, I got ghosted again. It was a bad experience. Felt like she is toying with me. Why ghost an applicant repetitively? Unprofessional recruiter who doesn't respect an applicant's time or efforts!
4 rounds of interview including coding , design , case study, behavioral after clearing the code signal assesment. Coding was medium hard of 2 questions each. case study and system design was difficult.
