Focus: ETL Pipelines | Streaming | Data Analytics | Mid to Senior | Transitioning into Data Engineering

Format: Live 1:1 Video Call

Description:

This mock interview session simulates the kind of technical and behavioral discussions you'd face in a data engineering interview at Expedia Group or similar large-scale tech companies.

We'll dive into both technical and behavioral aspects with a focus on:

⚙️ Technical Topics:

  • Building and optimizing ETL pipelines (batch & incremental loads)
  • Designing streaming architectures (Kafka, Spark Structured Streaming, Kinesis, etc.)
  • Data modeling for analytics and reporting
  • SQL challenges (window functions, performance tuning)
  • Cloud-native data workflows (AWS EMR, Redshift, etc.)

💬 Behavioral Questions:

  • How you’ve handled data quality issues, late-arriving data, schema evolution
  • Cross-team communication (analytics, product, infra)
  • STAR-format questions around ownership, leadership, and problem-solving in ambiguous situations

What You'll Get:

  • Structured, Q&A tailored to your experience level
  • Real-time feedback on your communication, technical depth, and interview readiness
  • Follow-up resources or suggestions (if needed)

This is ideal if you're preparing for interviews in tech firms where scalability, data reliability, and stakeholder collaboration are key.
