I applied online. I interviewed at Capital One (New York, NY) in Apr 2023
Interview
The Systems Design interview was a nightmare. The lady interviewer kept interrupting me because she didn't like my answers and seemed to be confused about what she was actually asking. The other tree interviews were ok but I'd like interviewers to be at least cordial, show less bias and have some communication training.
