I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (New York, NY) in Apr 2022
Interview
1 phone screen 1 coding session 4 rounds in one day It was tiring. They follow the same interviewing practices as FAANG companies and I personally find it to be unnecessary. But to each their own I suppose.

Question 1
Medium difficulty on leetcode for coding problems. Jenkins AWS
Surprisingly manageable — the interview felt more like a conversation than an interrogation. It began with a sequence of coding questions, including one on merging overlapping intervals. The real challenge came during system design, where I had to outline a URL shortener service that could scale impressively. Interestingly, I had just looked at a similar architecture on PracHub, which helped me articulate my thoughts clearly. The technical questions wrapped up with validating a binary search tree, and I ended with a positive vibe. I received an offer, but ultimately chose to decline it.

Question 1
Merge overlapping intervals from a list of time ranges
Interviewed for an engineer position, the interview was a joke. Asked basic OOP question with a few follow ups - no system design portion. Interviewer was very laid back and chill, didn't take it to seriously.
Was not too difficult. three total interviews all on the same day back to back. technical one, behavioral one and a case which was more of just a debugging question
