The interview process typically includes an initial HR or recruiter screening to discuss background, role fit, availability, and expectations, followed by one or two technical interview rounds focusing on SQL, data engineering concepts, ETL/ELT pipelines, cloud platforms, and hands-on project experience. This is usually followed by a managerial or techno-managerial round that evaluates problem-solving, ownership, and collaboration skills, and concludes with a final HR discussion covering compensation, notice period, and offer details.
