J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Databricks (San Francisco, CA) en mars 2017
Entretien
I applied online, HR person talk about the technology about you worked on and about future with your goals.
Second round - Technical with Hiring manager, basically they will see about if you really worked on the technology or not. Scenario based questions.
Third Round : Assignment on Spark (Scala or Python) on Notebook.
Forth Round : Technical Interview with coding skills specially on Java and Scala/Python using Spark.
Once you clear , they will let you know in 1 week .
Finally Onsite Interview - 6 rounds - one after another, go into deep and more deep with technology.
Don't bluff if you don't know say clearly but if you say you know and you actually didn't work on that they will pull you very deeply, because they know hadoop, aws, spark , scala , java and python very very depth.
Just take it easy , as they are also human's they know you can't work on all the technology so if you know that's good enough.
Finally I got the offer by next day morning. I am so happy that I did well and they liked me.
Databricks interview process is very ordered way but onsite interview is very long.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1

Was contacted almost a month after I initially replied, recruiter directly scheduled a 1:1 zoom with the hiring manager (no phone screen).
Interviewer was late to the meeting, did not apologize, did not introduce themselves, and was fairly rude. They spent a lot of time asking about why I had left my previous company (which is totally valid), but kept prodding about it despite already providing thorough answers; in fact, they spent more time asking about my former company than they did talking about Databricks or my resume. It took a lot of prompting from me to ask them about their workflows and team culture, and they did a very poor job of selling the role.
Honestly it seemed like they wanted to leave the company and join my former one by the end of it.
Did not hear back at all afterwards, which is fine because I was already disinterested by the time we wrapped up our conversation.
Quite disrespectful coming from a Senior Leader, I was reached out through LinkedIn by a Director of Technical Solutions, provided all the information he requested and was ghosted right after.
