Colloquio
It was just discussing about the role and my fit. I was informed about the interview process and the hybrid work culture they had. There was a coding test before the interview which had 2 questions that were fairly simple. Then there was the 1st round of interview.

Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso C3 AI (San Francisco, CA) nel mese di giu 2020
Colloquio
I've been approached by the recruiter, who scheduled a phone screen.
At the phone screen the interviewer was completely clueless about data engineering at all.
I had to explain him what is Record Layout, Data Enhancement, Hash Totals etc.
Afterwards, he came up with 3 lines of Java code that overwrites random values in the list and asked me how I would revert it back. I explained, that in real life we have some integrity checks that will detect violation of data integrity and reject such records, rather than trying to "fix" them.
Additionally, when I said that during an initial discussion with recruiter I stressed that I'm not Java developer. The interviewer said that Java is same Scala. When I asked what similarities he could see between these two languages, he could not tell much. I pointed out, that Scala mostly uses immutable data structures, so his Java example is irrelevant, since you cannot overwrite immutable value.
Such a waste of time. I wish companies had less clueless monkeys, who memorize recycled knowledge and try to look smart.
