9,350 development associate interview questions shared by candidates

I got the virtual cards case study. The interviewer asked about background and small talk for the first 2 mins and the rest 40 mins were just about the case. How can they improve it? What value does it bring? How is the costs calculated for Capital one? What technical components do you need to think off for the screen they show you. What other improvements could you make? How would this information show up in the database? Etc etc. I do not think it was too crazy, they are basically looking for a work environment fit at this stage.

Job fit: hypothetical situation you were hired at a large financial firm as lead designer. Something about how to make any customer of small business cards part of the banking business as well. Then added things to the situation like a member of the team made designs ahead of time and wants you to execute them, and the developer is backtracking on their word and not following the plan. What do you do?

Design challenge: interviewer screen shared a packet with context info and the prompt for me to screen shot. They leave you to work on it for ~1hr and then come back for you to present. I didn't have time to read it and ask questions at the beginning but they were available to email and come back on the call if I needed. There were instructions for how they suggest tackling the challenge but my interviewer said not to worry about that and just focus on my process and explaining it at the end. Asked questions about my solution like which piece I would say is the biggest priority, the steps that would go into implementing my solution, how would I Disneyfy my solution and what that meant.
