Answered By Mentor Priyansha Sharma
Answer to the 1st part of your question:
- Start solving coding question on your favorites platform like interviewbit, leetcode, gfg.
- If you are beginner then start solving easy question 1st once you gain confidence there, go to medium and then hard question.
- Try to solve easy question in 20 min, medium 30 min, hard in 40-50 min. its better to see the solution if u are not able to solve the question within this time frame.
- After solving question, Try to check out solution posted by other students because sometime we can learn good trick by seeing different solutions.
- Practice 1-10 question/day and try to maintain consistency.

Answered By Mentor Shivali Maheshwari
Hi Purushottam,
To prepare for data engineering interviews, focus on these key areas: SQL proficiency, data modeling, ETL processes, big data tools (e.g., Hadoop, Spark), and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure). Strong Python skills for scripting and data manipulation are essential, but not at the level required for software engineering interviews. You should be comfortable with Python libraries like pandas and have a solid understanding of data structures and algorithms. Practice coding challenges related to data processing and optimization. Additionally, study system design concepts and real-world data engineering scenarios. Tailor your preparation to the specific role and company you're interviewing with.
