I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One in Oct 2019
Interview
Very nice interview process. 1 Technical, 1 Behavioral, and 1 Casestudy. Interviewers and recruiters were extremely helpful and respectful. Stumbled on a question but was helped by interviewer and got the answer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given code from another company, how would you simplify to make it more readable and understandable
it was easy, standard powerday three rounds. Lots of common questions, and the guides they gave us was helpful. Took long for recruiters to get back to you though. I would recommend really knowing OOP
3 questions + follow ups:
one time you challenged the status quo
one time you worked in a team
one time you learned something new for a project
1: track all purchases for customers (no refunds)
how to track refunds?
how to get top N cashback for certain month
what would you do to scale this to multiple customers not just one (this is theoretical no coding)
The Capital One software engineer intern interview includes online assessments, behavioral and technical questions, coding challenges, and system design discussions, emphasizing problem-solving skills, communication, innovation, collaboration, and cultural alignment throughout.
