a lot of tell me about questions. Specific question how to debug AWS error messages.
Endured a brutal 6-round interview gauntlet for a Senior Software Engineering Manager position at #Captalone, excelling in coding, system design, and behavioral evaluations - all without the hiring manager lifting a finger. Today, they blindside me: 'Technically stellar but short on leadership,' and shove a basic Manager role at me. It's a blatant low-ball, a mockery of my seniority and the ordeal they put me through. This isn't just disappointing; it's disrespectful. My concern stems from comparing the interview process for a managerial position at Capital One versus what I'm familiar with at companies like AWS, where candidates for similar roles undergo at least three managerial interviews, including a session with an L8 director level. The depth of these interviews at AWS ensures a comprehensive evaluation of a candidate's leadership and influence capabilities. In contrast, my experience with the Capital One interview process included only one brief 20-minute round focused on behavioral and managerial aspects. This limited exposure does not seem sufficient to thoroughly assess a candidate's leadership qualities or influence, especially for a role as critical as a Senior Software Engineering Manager.
