I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Discover
Interview
The first interview was over the phone. The interviewer mostly asked basic questions. We went through my resume more in detail and talked about my other qualifications. The second interview was also over the phone. These questions were mostly behavioral (tell me a time when you did this...) and some critical thinking. Also time to ask questions at the end. I received an email a few days later saying that I did not move on in the interview process.
The first part of the process is an OA that consists of coding and multiple-choice questions. After that is the technical interview followed by the last round with is a behavioral interview

I applied online. I interviewed at Discover (Houston, TX) in Jan 2025
Interview
hackerrank for 75 min, 15 min recruiter screen, 45 technical (going through your hackerrank; make sure to explain your coding thought process) and behavioral interview. Asking questions like what drew you to discover and where’d you hear about the opportunity.
I had 2 rounds of interviews (I believe that 3 is the new standard). For both interviews, it was really easy to speak with the recruiter and share my experience.
