What’s the difference between the senior and mid level SWE interviews at Capital One?

That’s reassuring! Do you know if the questions change any? Like a leetcode medium or hard versus a easy or a more difficult case study?

Rarely do the difficulty of programming questions get harder with levels. It's more common to look at the scope of responsibility in your past experience. At Facebook and Google your level is ENTIRELY based on the scope of experience of your previous work experience, how large the projects you managed are, how many users you built products for etc... You get a mid-level role if you've independently owned large features end to end for tens of millions to hundreds of millions of users.
