I worked for capital one as a new grad for 2 years, capital one internship program is great and barrier to entry isn't high. I'd suggest all freshman/sophomores in undergrad to apply and just study the tagged leetcode problems, you should be able to get an offer.
Interns get paid ~55-70 per hour depending on location. Also, you get put into a legit internship program and network with a ton of really smart kids from great universities who will jump to FAANG after. I'd highly recommend as a precursor to joining big tech.
Hi @armankhondker,
I have a pair programming interview with Capital One coming up Next Week. Is it possible to connect as I will like to get some insight from your experience.
Will be glad to hear from you. Thanks🙏
@@georgeamuzu7584update?
Do more of these stories, love to hear them
Man this is interesting. I love what you're doing. Please keep videos like this coming.
Do more of these please. The bit where everyone was dressed nice and seemed very smart and prepared is soo relatable, when in reality you were probably better than them and you just didn’t brag about your education in the bus.
cry more for your harvard and brown overlords
Liked your story. Keep posting such videos. Whenever I'm depressed see such of your videos I feel like I have so much fun to have in life.
Thank you for sharing this! It was really inspiring!
This is so relatable. god dang it.
Hey new subscriber, i remember was it a year ago? but i applied to the capital one internship and there were two "camps": the advanced for presumably mid-senior level devs, and the beginner....
They only emailed me to continue for the mid-senior internship i was devastated because of the insane gap - i had applied to the beginner internship.
I couldnt appeal or anything, why did they do that i feel like it was intentional?
Keep going navdeep , it really helps a lot over internet 😁
Why did you name it Neetcode and not deepcode as in Navdeepcode?
So what's the dress code for onsite interviews :P
I wore jeans and t-shirt and runners for my first interview with a startup in US. I couldn't afford a suit and I brought my luggage to the interview lol.
My mind went blank on easy questions at some interviews too.
The hotel thing isn't that big of a deal. A lot of people will just not leave hotel rooms after their checkout times. I've stayed in a decent amount of hotels and when it happens its definitely sketch but its pretty common tbh.
why doesnt anyone talk about what they actually did for their 10 week internship and was that worth 20k?
Is this a stream clip? Where can I watch the full video?
Yeah it's from a 24 hour stream I did here: th-cam.com/video/a3Aep-SygUA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=JUXdxJVanVXc3shr
You are great

Could you talk about "how to overcome the interview stress" if possible? I dunno how to overcome my stress besides taking many interviews. (While i get mentally down for days /weeks when i fail)
Personally, I would say from my experience, I don't care about the outcome of the interview either getting selected or not getting selected.
If you set up your mind like that, you would feel less stressed and relaxed.
It works most of the time.
It helped me a lot actually.
@@mixwood1130 But what if I feel like the interview opportunities I get feel limited, I am forced to care about the outcome regardless
@@riteeshacomputerscience4862 I just now finished my interview and it went well. They were impressed.
But even though I don't imagine that much or expect that much.
Expectation make us more disappointed.
I hope you will get selected soon and all the best.
You go to your pcp and ask them to prescribe propranolol, take 25-50mg 30
Min before and you’re golden. DO NOT take propranolol if you have asthma, you’ll die. Seriously.
Thanks for sharing man, could you plz share some experiences of how you got your first full-time job after grad. I'm a new grad, have completed 1100+ LeetCode questions, obtained two AWS certificates, and have two terms of internship exp before grad. And failed over 10 interviews......Still cannot get a full-time job. T.T sad and frustrated
Same here! Except I never had the opportunity to do internships because the school I went to sucked and didnt offer any
you're kidding right? 1100 leetcode.... u should be a god by now.
@@lycan2494 Well even if you practice a bunch, people get very nervous during the actual interview, which causes them to not perform well. Plus, there are so many different things you learn about from doing leetcode questions, and these interviews likewise ask you about many different data structures and algorithms, so it's difficult to come up with the correct solution on the spot
@@johndong4754 sometimes u don't need to have correct solution to get the job.
@@lycan2494 no kidding man, I suck at behavior questions, and I hate behavior questions. I think behavior questions are meaningless in front of technical questions of a technical position. As long as I finished 800+ LeetCode questions. I can solve OA and coding questions in a clear and quick way, so practicing does matter. But, yeah, got about 9-10 interviews and failed all. Still keep trying.....what else can I do
Capital One isn't offering any internships right now. They're doing a lot of PIP and layoffs
They actually are just that they had a short time window to apply this year.
damn three round interview for an internship :D i'm never gonna get a job
My career job I just retired from, I remember my boss looking at my feet and I looked and I had a hole in my shoe. I was horrified. I got the job and retired 42 years later ❤️❤️❤️
The real lore drop... Neetcode was a math tutor?!? 🤯
From math tutor to dsa tutor . No experience is a waste
I enjoy these clips, but I feel you gonna need a new channel just for the LC problems at this rate 😂
Meanwhile here in India, those damn interviewers asking atleast medium level binary trees questions for a 10k inr / month internship 😭
ya it's fucking absymal. I recently gave coding round of a company for 4.5LPA and there were 2 questions one was easy another one was Leetcode hard "Wild Card matching". Like r u fucking kidding me??
@@akhilchauhan9417That's wild, i also had similar experiences during my college placement drive, luckily i secured 1 offer.
@@akhilchauhan9417 most interviewers at small Indian companies don't know shit about questions
ya it's crazy here. I believe it's due to the high population & consequently the high competition.
Absolutely right bro 😢😢😢
Lucky Boy What I observed is mostly lie on extreme spectrum either they are too talented or vice-versa
Note : This research was conducted on a group of 200 Indian comprising of around 10-15 from each state by observing around 3-4 batches
18000 inr or ???
bruh are you serious rn, obv usd.
