Good hike. Opportunity to learn new technologies.
No cons as of now.
The first round was a coding round on a platform. Later, I had a technical round mainly focusing on SQL questions and Spark (pyspark) questions, followed by a managerial round.
Unless you are applying for a team lead or management-focused role, preparing for data engineering interviews with 3.5 or 4 years of experience is no different from preparing for data engineering interviews with, say, 2 years of experience or less.
Asked me about ERD, streaming data, and managing big data. Questions on Spark, Kafka, and Flink were also touched upon. Asked to write some SQL queries, tune SQL, and database tables. Basic bash commands for file management and data processing.
