I work in the Federal Contracting Division. It has good learning opportunities and lots of different types of work, if you are able to find it.
It can be difficult to switch to new projects. Their professional marketplace is clunky, and you can often feel like you are throwing your resume into a black hole.
The process was very smooth, applied through LinkedIn. The second day, I received a call from HR. It was very fast, and I received an offer within a week. I joined shortly after. It was a really good experience.
There was a medium-difficulty assessment. An interview was scheduled two weeks later, and I was rejected after the first round. The interview focused on SQL, data modeling, Spark, Linux, Python, and pipeline design.
Moderate level questions about Python. Easy questions for SQL, but expect compiler issues. Practice various Python scenarios. Basic SQL knowledge is sufficient. The interview will be automated and proctored, with a 60-minute time limit.
