Data Engineer Interview Experience - Plano, Texas
Process
My favorite interview/interviewers so far.
I was contacted by HR first. They spoke to me on the phone for about half an hour for an initial screening. Then, they sent me a link to a Codesignal task, which I finished within two weeks.
Later, I was contacted by the same HR person who offered a time slot for a "power interview," which included two technical interviews, one behavioral interview, and one case study.
After the power day, I was promptly contacted by the same HR person who let me know that I was not selected. They provided feedback, which I had kind of anticipated, stating that the interviewers liked my skills but considered my case study solution weak.
Questions
Codesignal: usual coding algorithms (e.g., return a palindrome).
Behavioral: 3 STAR questions.
Technical: Also about my skills and cloud experience.
Case Study: Having Python code to figure out what could be done differently.

- 2.0Big Team, High Pressure, CutthroatData Engineer • Former EmployeePlano, Texas, United StatesOctober 23, 2023Pros: Big team with lots of resources.Cons: Too much pressure. Incentivized to pump out new projects, not to fix current/broken products. The environment is super cutthroat. Too many changes in management (3 within the first 6 months). Depending on your LOB, it can be stressful or relaxed. Too many criteria for being considered strong in a performance review: aside from doing well in your job, they also want you to participate in competitions (hackathons), volunteer your time, and constantly take courses to advance yourself. There is no mobility into LOB or job paths that you are interested in.
