Absolutely a waste of time.
First is the online assessment, which takes an hour or two, and then a chat with a recruiter if you pass. After that you do a power day which is 4 one hour interviews in the same day.
Then you get ghosted for 2 weeks and are told you passed with flying colors and they all loved you. Then you get ghosted again for a week only to be told "oh the position was filled, BUT don't worry there's another amazing team which really wants you. "
Another week being ghosted, and what do you know - oh sorry the position has been filled.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS TRASH PROCESS FOR A MEDIOCRE COMPANY.
I spent countless hours not only preparing but actually interviewing. I had to take a whole day PTO to do the power day, and they don't have the courtesy to respect your time to give you timely answers. What an absolute embarrassment of a company.
The process started with online coding assessment. The questions ranged from leetcode easy to medium. After passing this, I went through virtual onsite (power day). This consisted of 1 coding, 1 system design, 1 behavioral, 1 case interview.

Case interview scenario was about finding valid credit card
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital One in Mar 2025
Interview
It was fairly quick. I did not have a formal CS degree, so I was immediately rejected in the first 5 minutes. However, I was referred to a different department within the company that had different hiring standards.
