Application

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Capital One

Interview

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME! I spent 4 months going through the HR screenings, hiring manger screening, case study, and powerday which I spent 40+ hours preparing for. No one on the powerday was focused or cared. In TWO of them, the people walked away to take care of personal matters. In another, the woman didn't even understand the question herself. The whole process was about math problems which is not relevant to my experience as a PM. After months of interviews and 40+ hours of prep work I received an automated rejection email. I asked for feedback twice and got ghosted.

                    Interview

                    I absolutely adored my recruiter, who was very attentive and kept me well informed during the process. The initial case rounds were manageable and very much fit the descriptions for what to expect. Unfortunately, the last round I was asked to describe something technically at the same level as a "technical architect," and when I was only able to describe the system design at a high level, the interviewer very visibly shut down, having written me off as a candidate.
