Databricks interview questions

Very lengthy process. I made it absolutely clear in the beginning that I am more of a Data Sciene and ML person with most of my experience being around AI and GenAI pre-sales. Even then in interview process, I was evaluate on my ability to design data pipelines. This is extremely unfair. And they DO NOT want pre-sales folks for this job. Unfortunately, they do not understand difference between pre-sales and implementation. They need Data Engineers with soft skills (even if they dont have the ability to sell). Based on my personal experience and based on hundreds of other negative experiences here on Glassdoor, I would not recommend wasting 5-6 weeks of your time here unless you are a Data Engineer. Round 1 : Recruiter screen Round 2 : Hiring manager screen Round 3 : Take home technical screen Round 4 : Phone technical screen Round 5 : Presentation Round 6 : Interview with senior team members

The entire process was quite long in my opinion. Going through 7 interview steps and not getting an offer at the end is a lot to take. Especially since so much preparation is needed for the different interview steps. And it appears as if the same questions are asked during the interviews. It was all done in around 4 weeks but unfortunately with a different hiring manager each time. It would be better if the interview process is more streamlined - especially for mid level roles. It doesn’t make sense that everyone has the same 8 step interview process irrespective of their career level. At least the people were all nice. From the recruiter down to the seven different employees I spoke with
