Databricks Solution Architect interview questions

** Disclaimer: I'm fully aware of the previous experiences that other candidates have reviewed for this role, and I appreciate that DB was probably in a different stage compared to the present, thus explaining why there were more negative skewed reviews. ** The interview process for the SA role at DB was straightforward, well-organised, and completely respectful from my perspective, especially since I managed expectations from the very start that I did not come from a Data Science/AI/ML background. While there were many stages in the process compared to other organisations I've interviewed with, I felt completely comfortable and enjoyed each interaction. The lead recruiter also did a fantastic job in keeping me up to date and prepared me accordingly for each stage: - Recruiting Sourcer from LinkedIn (30 min call) - Lead Recruiter Screen (45 min call) - Hiring Manager Screen (45 min call) - Take Home Technical Assignment (1 week deadline) - Technical Interview: Architecture & Data Science/Engineering Questions (1 hour) - Presentation (Pre-Sales) Showcase (30 min prep call with HM and 1 hour call for presentation) - Executive Leadership Interview (30 mins call) - Hiring Manger & Lead Recruiter Wrap-Up (30 mins) Potential candidates may see the above as long-winded, but if you're serious about joining DB and you are worth your weight, then these stages should be effortless. After all, would you join a company which has subpar employees? Probably not. DB has also done a tremendous job in streamlining/parallelising these stages, so it took approximately 3 weeks to complete (as supposed to 8 weeks from other reports), until a former offer was extended and accepted.

Very well structured, manage consistency all through the interview process and establishing the standards and judge candidates on performance, not just on prior experience and start by defining the key requirements of the job
