Technical Behavioral
I had an incredible experience with the Capco interview process. The structure included both technical and non-technical interviews, and I felt the balance was fair. During technical interviews, I made a point to think aloud and clearly walk through my problem-solving process. Interviewers were engaged, receptive, and encouraging. In the non-technical interviews, the interviewers were professional, incredibly kind, and created an environment where it felt like a pleasant conversation about my past experience.

Behavioral Technical
I really enjoyed the interview process, it wasn't stressful at all. It felt more like a casual chat than a formal interview, which made me feel comfortable. The interviewer was easy to talk to, and we had a good, relaxed discussion. I didn't get the job in the end, but I really appreciated how professional and thoughtful they were throughout. They seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me as a person, not just checking my skills. I'd recommend this place to others because it was a positive experience overall, even with the outcome. It was way better than other, more stuffy interviews I've had.
