I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (London, England) in Dec 2021
Interview
Recruiter reached out after I applied online. They told I would be considered for Senior Software Engineer role.
Recruiter is a CHAMP, very friendly, gave loads of heads up and tips and also helped with negotiation.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. CodeSignal OA was worst. I only managed to solve 2/4
2. In HM screening (2nd round) - Resume Scanning + Behavioral + TMAAT Questions
3. DSA - LC Medium - Convert Integer to Roman & implement a Spring Boot API endpoint using Spring Data JPA, such that no duplicate entries are saved if API called multiple times
4. System Design - Loan Application System Design - I read from DDIA and that helped me sail. Also YT videos of GauravSen and Tech Dummies Narendra L
5. Behavior - TMAAT standard questions
It was a standard interview process. Your technical interview which included multiple different rounds all in one day. It included a coding question, systems design question, business use case question, behavioral interview.
30 min quick call
Technical round of leetcode type questions
Unfortunately ended there as i didn't pass the that round.
Presumably it was going to be system design after this online leetcode question and then onsite.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital One (Toronto, ON) in Dec 2024
Interview
Applied on their career site and was reached out to by the recruiter over email and phone. First round was a 70-minute proctored CodeSignal assessment.
The last round consisted of two parts, spread across two days – the first part was a 1-hour behavioral round with a tech lead, and the second part was a 1.5-hour pair programming session with two staff-level engineers and a shadow interviewer.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
CodeSignal Assessment consisted of two easy, one medium and one hard coding questions. Expectation was to be able to solve at least two completely, with a partial third for extra points.
The 1.5-hour pair programming question was not like your typical LeetCode question. It simulated a type of problem that you would solve at a bank/credit card company. The focus was algorithmic implementation; not so much OOP concepts.
