I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (Ciudad de Mexico) in May 2025
Interview
Fueron 3 horas de entrevista con un descanso de 1 hora, una de esas entrevistas es técnica y las otras 2 son complemente sobre temas relacionados con la carrera. Fueron retadoras ya que es hablar inglés fluido durante todo ese tiempo continuamente, pero a su vez me sirvió para tener más experiencia

Question 1
Que pienso de la IA
Que lenguajes d programación use
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
Expecting a challenging experience, I found the interview at Capital One to be intense, particularly during the system design section. The question on designing a rate limiter with a token bucket algorithm took me by surprise; mid-way through the problem, I realized it was very similar to a drill I’d practiced on prachub.com just days earlier. The technical rounds included several DSA questions, and the interviewers were thorough but supportive. Ultimately, I received an offer and happily accepted, feeling well-prepared despite the pressure.
