Process
Scheduled a 45-minute interview with a current data engineer.
Asked two basic SQL questions, but answers were provided using Python and Pandas.
Asked a few "product sense" questions to gauge approach to answering data science questions.
Heavily suggest attending the pre-interview data science interview prep session.
