Data Engineer Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom

Process

Phone chat with recruiter after internal referral, brought to on-site after a short phone technical interview, which only covered algorithm problem. I didn’t answer the optimal solution but I think I spoke out loud and communicated my thought process, so he decided to move me on.

At onsite interview, 1 SQL interview, 2 coding interviews, 1 system design interview, and 1 behavioural interview. I want to stress out the system design interview, because they might ask you a distributed system or data modelling problem, depending on which you’re more familiar with.

The recruiter and coordinator are super helpful and supportive. The overall experience is much better than what I’ve been through with Amazon’s.

Got rejected 5 days after the onsite interview. The point is to get prepared enough, and there’s no such thing as preparing too hard — always over prepare, that’s the only thing you need to do.
