      I interviewed at Capital One

      Interview

      Job description was inaccurate, or was intentionally casting a wide net to get more applicants and then rejecting applicants who don't have experience with the technologies they needed at the very moment you applied. Received a rejection email saying "Unfortunately, we have determined that you do not meet the required Basic Qualifications listed in the job description" which pretty clearly implied that I did not read the job description, but I did more then just read it once - I saved it locally on my computer. I don't think it's appropriate to list jobs that cast a wide net if you fully intend on rejecting candidates because they don't have experience with a select few of the technologies you listed. Especially since this job clearly states "experience in one or more of the following..." and I have experience with *several* of the following..? (nearly half the list!) I put time into reading your job description and submitting my application. I need to know what you are looking for *today* so I can determine if the job is for me or not. It seems the job lists everything they could ever possibly be looking for, and then they reject as needed to fill seats in various places. That's probably fine, if you own it in your rejection email. If you need only Java or front-end developers, just say so. This experience comes off the wrong way because it clearly implies i didn't do my due diligence before applying, and I did.
