While there are multiple posts on FB data engineer interviews, I am looking for some guidance on DE Lead position. For the initial phone interview the format mentioned to me includes 2 SQL, 1 or 2 Python, 1 Modeling and 1 ETL questions. Typical DE interviews test the candidate on accuracy (test cases validations) and speed (completion within 1 hour). I am not getting what is the measuring yardstick for lead interview and what approach should I use for preparation. Example: Do I need to practice codingbat / leetcode with timer? Will SQL, Python question be at same complexity as typical DE interview?

Also what are the good resources to prepare data modeling and ETL questions? If I can get a peek on some samples, that would be super helpful.

For curiosity, what level does DE lead maps at FB?

Thanks all and be safe!
