I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA) in Jun 2017
Interview
It was an all day event. I went to the West Creek campus in Richmond at 8:30 and had an assortment of interviews until 3 pm. There were 2 behavioral interviews and 2 job fit interviews, plus you'll have someone take you to lunch at one of the cafeterias on campus. West Creek campus is BEAUTIFUL and where most interviews are conducted.
Expect to communicate clearly about how you approached a situation TECHNICALLY AND BEHAVIORALLY. It is expected that you will have great leadership, communication skills, and initiative to be successful here. So, intend to describe your role in every situation down to the important details.

Question 1
Just came on here to gripe about the coding test. For a data engineering job, these code riddles had NOTHING to do with data whatsoever. There were no SQL questions at all.
