I applied through college or university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Capital One in Oct 2019
Interview
Applied for the Technology Development Program.
Contacted by recruiter early August 2019. Had phone call with recruiter and shortly thereafter got invited for the on-campus interview. 3 interviews: behavioral, case, and technical.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Coin change problem limited to 1, 2, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500 denominations.
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.
This took a bit longer than expected, stretching over several weeks. The technical rounds were intense, featuring an LRU cache implementation and a problem on detecting duplicate transactions within a 60-second window. I was nervous at first, but it clicked for me when I realized I had practiced a similar approach on PracHub just days before. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive an offer in the end, but the experience was a solid learning opportunity. The behavioral questions felt straightforward, so I wish I had made a stronger impression in the technical segments.
