Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at CapTech.
Data Engineering Intern
I had one behavioral and one technical interview. The interview was pretty straightforward and easy. It took me two weeks to hear back after the technical interview, though some people heard back in 3 days.
- Why are you interested in a career in Consulting?
- What qualities make a good consultant?
Data Engineer
The interview process started with a phone call, then a second round technical interview over Zoom. They didn't require any code writing, but asked for high-level answers to technical questions. The interviewer was very friendly, even when I didn't answer a question perfectly.
- Can you explain how to merge two tables using either Python or SQL?
Data Engineer
First, there was a phone screen. After that, I had a 30-45 minute technical interview. Then there was a final round. I didn't hear back from the recruiter about the timeline for the next steps. When I mentioned I had another offer but was still very interested in this role, they said I wouldn't be moving to the final round so as not to affect my other offer. My friends who were also interviewing said they waited up to 4 weeks after the recruiter told them they'd hear back.
- Can you explain what a left join in SQL is?
