      Senior Data Warehouse Engineer Interview

      Dec 28, 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Berlin
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at smava (Berlin) in Dec 2018

      Interview

      After a technical test sent by email they invited me to a face to face interview, like 2 weeks later, the interview started with asking about the answers on the test, which for them were wrong, so i started wondering why do they invite to an interview, and after the explanation it seems there is a over load of work, and not following the technical standards in what I have talked with them, so that will lead to big issues in the future and a redesign will be needed o just live with it putting off fires

      Dear Data Warehouse Candidate, Thank you for taking the time and writing this review. I am sorry you got this impression after the interview with us. First, I would like to address your comments about the test. Through the task, we not only hope we can examine your technical skills, but also your critical thinking and problem-solving ones. Therefore, sometimes even if there are some mistakes, we still think it would be good to get to know the candidate. Even though the test helps us decide what the next step in the process should be, this is not the only criteria we consider. To the second point- we are a fast-growing company that is driven by data, so there are several challenges and chances for each and every employee to have an impact on our product. Because of our fast-growth, it is a logical flow that we need to redesign our database according to the new needs, but it doesn’t mean that we will compromise on the skills of future employees. Good luck with your own recruitment process! Best, Natalia
