I applied online. I interviewed at Capital One (Toronto, ON)

There are basically 3 rounds. First is technical assessment, Second is technical round with senior engineer and then behavioral round will be there. If you get selected you will get offer letter within 2 weeks.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me to solve a coding problem on arrays, specifically finding the maximum subarray sum, and explain my approach step by step.
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)
