      I interviewed at Databricks (London, England)

      Initial Screening: A preliminary call with the recruiter to discuss my background and interest in the role. Technical Discussion: A second-stage interview with a Senior Data Engineer to assess technical knowledge and experience. Competency Assessment: Completion of a structured SQL test to evaluate problem-solving and technical proficiency.

      They asked me to complete a SQL test, which was quite challenging as it required the use of multiple joins, window functions, and advanced querying techniques.

      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Databricks (London, England) in Oct 2024

      Interview

      Overadvertised and under-responsive. Quite disappointing not to be treated properly even after a multitude of LinkedIn posts mentioning that they are allegedly hiring. A long way to treat candidates properly even during the offer period.

      Question 1

      Why Databricks and why now?
