TC/YOE : 225/10 ( not swe, data engineer) Recently had an onsite with FB for data engineer role. Can someone from FB help to understand my chances ? Round 1: interviewer draws a dashboard and we speak about what Is happening in the dashboard. Finally depending on that moved to SQL. Could not finish last SQL ( interview went little over time) but whiteboarded the logic. Interviewer left with a smile. He Provided fare number (3-4) of HINTS ( good or bad ?) Round 2: Interviewer talks about an ETL process and we designed the job flow. SQL questions from the ETL which I solved quickly. Then came coding and did in Java but got little blooped as interviewer wanted to code everything in a function and I had same concept using a class. Poker Face of interviewer throughout. But gave lot of HINTs ( that’s good or bad ?) Round 3: Started with a data model for a business case and what dashboards is relevant for the case. Interviewer pronged a lot but once praised that database design is looking good. Then depending on the model started asking sql. By this time I was stressed out. Solved two sqls but for third one got a brain fart and took longer time. Interviewer left after simplifying my over complicated solution with a smile but FELT like he had more sqls to ask. Round 4: Behavioral. Senior manager. Poker face. Started asking series of questions. To save time( and I was very tired) I answered with little details and with keywords similar to FB mission but for one or two questions felt ( post interview) could have done better. So Q: What do you think #facebook employees on chance of getting offer ? Did not get asked coding except for one round. Was I slow that round 1 or 3 could not reach to coding ? What could be better for behavioral ? —— many thanks.
you fucked up on 4
Did you got the offer?
Did u get it?
May I DM you? I have my onsite interview next week.
TLDR
Since not many data engineering post here hence avoided tldr
