Application I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Capital One (Richmond, VA).

Interview

A HackerRank online coding test was administered. After passing a phone screen with the hiring manager and his team members, the following questions were asked:

• Difference between String, StringBuffer, and StringBuilder
• How do you make a class immutable?
• What is a weak reference?
• Questions on AngularJS directives
• Spring DI
• Difference between GET, PUT, and POST methods

After passing the phone screen, I was called for a face-to-face interview.

During the F2F interview, there were two behavioral and two fit interview sessions. Behavioral questions included:

• Describe a time you sought help from outside your team or company.
• Describe the most stressful situation you faced.
• Describe a conflict of interest you encountered with a team member.
• Describe a situation where you had to choose a different technology mid-project.

Fit interview questions primarily focused on:

• AngularJS
• Spring REST API
• Spring DI
• Writing JSON code
• Angular two-way binding
• Angular promise calls
• Angular filtering

Describe a situation where you had to choose different technology in the middle of the project.
