I already had phone interview for DE and scheduled for onsite. What is it like for onsite interview? Is it more focussed on Hadoop/Spark/Hive or SQL or both? Would there be any coding questions in, say, Spark? Please share your experience. #amazon #dataengineer #onsite
SQL is super important as lots of data solutions very much so still depend on SQL. Do you know the name of the org that you are interviewing for?
Is python skill also needed? If needed at what level?
It does not hurt to know Python however I have not seen it used widespread here at Amazon. However there are some hiring managers who love the buzz around Python :-) Python is used however not as much as SQL at least that has been my experience so far (5 years at Amazon)
