My friend had his Data Engineering onsite today. All parts of his behavioral interview, data modeling and batch ETL went well. The interviewer provided a couple of hints during the batch ETL interview though. During his streaming ETL interview, he feels like the data visualization/product sense/sql part went really well. But he was not able to complete the streaming python question. How important is the streaming python interview at facebook? Should he be hopeful? *I am posting this on behalf of my friend who is not a blind user.#facebook #dataengineer #interview
You never know. Is it Analytics?
Yes. It's analytics.
can you please share - what is the 'job title' on LinkedIn to search for, which is ETL centric @Meta
When I did the interview loop, there were 3 open headcount for DE in NYC and 5 open headcount for DE in MPK. When I accepted the offer, there was 1 headcount in NYC and 2 headcount in MPK. It's unlikely your friend's performance is top 2. So reject, or optimistically, downlevel.
When was this ? How do you know the numbers ?
I asked my recruiter. This was early October and mid December. Hard to know if they're telling the truth--to be fair.
Who isn’t concerned about their “friend’s” interview performance and know such details about every round of this “friend’s” interview? 😉
I’d be interested in hearing what the recruiter gave as an initial feedback if any.. not necessarily a bad sign. My friend got in despite having one bad ETL round and his recruiter told him that the interviewers were impressed by his communication and approach. They declared the “bad round” as an outlier and went with majority vote and he’s in - working at FB for past 3 months
Hey man, would you mind telling us what exactly(i mean tasks ) would you have in a streaming and ETL rounds. A bit confused :D
Hello, I have an onsite interview next week and struggling with what to expect in streaming ETL part. I understand that you may not be able to share the exact question due to NDA but can you please share your friend's experience and how he prepared for it? And if you can also share the sample question or something similar. Thanks in advance.
