Someone got 100% but still got rejected for final round. I think they resume review after OA.

verbal bay
#

not to be rude, but 725 isn't high

#

also apparently cap one care more about resume than codesignal

lucid falcon
#

That’s why I mentioned it, and it might help someone get an idea of their own score

verbal bay
#

yeah consider it a resume reject then

normal stream
#

@verbal bay someone posted here they still got to final with around the same score. I think the resume review matters more.

lucid falcon
#

Damn sad

#

My resume is strong tho I think

#

Depends on the company

Sure I’ll send it in #resume gimme a sec

I think college also matters to Capital One, so if you don't go to a target college then you can get rejected too.

#

There's a lot of rng involved tbh

#

@lucid falcon codesignal is usually just a screen to get to resume review

#

After the cutoff i don't think score mayyers

lucid falcon
#

yeee so i've heard

violet vale
#

Don't feel too bad

#

Just treat it as a resume reject

lucid falcon
#

idk what's wrong with my resume tho tbh, i feel like it's really solid and i can't rly think of many ways to improve it, aside from getting some kinda data metrics which my company doesn't track or do

#

so i'd have to just make it up or guess

violet vale
#

What can you do

lucid falcon
#

:/

violet vale
#

🤷‍♂️

lucid falcon
#

I put it in #resume btw, maybe im missing something blatantly terrible abt my resume

normal stream
#

Data metrics unnecessary, Capital One kept rejecting me each year even after I got a FAANG.

lucid falcon
#

lol wtf

normal stream
#

yeah, there's rng involved

#

i got "referred" to a recruiter by someone who turned down their offer in favor of full time

normal stream
#

I got a referral last year and that's the only way I got a interview with Capital One. Otherwise they just reject me.

lucid falcon
#

the recruiter asked if he had ppl he knew looking for swe internships, so i got the email that way

violet vale
#

It's outta your hands 🤷‍♂️

lucid falcon
#

Ugh.

#

This whole process is such a pain man

violet vale
#

Fr tho

lucid falcon
#

I've literally applied to more places than i can count, i think over 100 by now

#

i think application->OA rate so far is like, 5-7%

violet vale
#

I applied to 400+ in 2nd year

#

200+ this year

lucid falcon
#

never gotten past an OA before

violet vale
#

Ya it's tough out there

lucid falcon
#

The longer i do this the more i wanna just stick to my gas station salary local internship this summer lmfao

violet vale
#

Hey, any internship is good tbh

#

Most cs students don't have any internships by grad

tulip panther
#

^

#

Getting an internship already put you ahead

lucid falcon
#

you'd think having a previous internship would make my chances better at landing something this summer

#

😂

#

feels like it isn't doing anything at all

tulip panther
#

Yea it definitely does

#

People even have better chances with unpaid internship vs none

normal stream
#

it helps, but you gotta cast a wide net

#

especially if your university doesn't provide the job network that the bigger ones provide
