Regardless how good you are in coding, you need to have people skills. You will be put through an exercise to demonstrate how well you work with a team and how you prioritize tasks.

Anonymous Interview Candidate
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at USAA in Jan 2022
Phone screen appointment was 35 minutes late! There was a language barrier as I had to ask her several times to repeat a question. Also, it seemed like the recruiter did not have my resume in front of her. At the end, I felt as of she did not truly understand how I had responded to her questions. I cannot understand how USAA uses foreign based recruiters with such a heavy accent to phone screen qualified applicants.
- Are you willing to work on-site?

Anonymous Interview Candidate
I interviewed at USAA
I was interviewed while in college on campus. The interview was divided into 3 parts. The first was the general getting to know you part, then a technical phase which included a problem you had to solve and the final part was just questions you had for the recruiters.
- Given a set area and a number of points located inside the area, how would you code a function that ensures that most points are counted without going one by one.
