Hi all,

I interviewed yesterday at Capital One and they let me know they'll be giving me an offer once I go through team matching, curious to hear which teams people would recommend trying to get into, what are the relative pros/cons of different teams. They're starting me off with a meeting w/someone in the cyber security group. They didn't discuss details but I'd expect to be either software engineer or senior software engineer. Thanks everyone

TC 125k YOE 4.5

  • With your YOE you should push for PA (senior swe), not SA (swe) no matter what they say.

    Your base at SA wouldn’t be much higher than $125k (it’d probably be around $135k btw), whereas PA would start you around $150k. (McLean figures btw)

    Promotion from SA to PA can be pretty political and is NOT merit based, so don’t count on your expertise getting you promoted.

    • It’s literally a popularity contest and nothing else.

      You could win a Turing Award but if you didn’t give presentations and/or collaborate publicly across teams then you won’t get promoted.

      It’s pretty dumb imo. Obv the Turing Award bit is hyperbole.

    • Yeah that’s the sense that I get. That to get promoted you need to do a dog and pony show for all the various managers.

      OP
      Not sure what they considered my level but I got a medium. Don't know if it's tagged but it wasn't a difficult one. They also have the systems design, behavioral (pretty standard), case interview (hard to prep for but not that bad)

  • If you applied for software Engineer and recruiter did not ask or tell you to reapply or you have been
    Level up or down it would be same level. Recruiter would discuss the change of level before team matching
