The interview process for a Data Engineer typically includes:
Initial Screening: An HR call to discuss your background, experience, and interest in the role.
Technical Screening: A coding test focused on SQL, data structures, and algorithms.
Technical Interviews: In-depth discussions on data engineering concepts, system design, and your experience with relevant tools (e.g., Azure, Spark).
Behavioral Interview: Questions to assess cultural fit and problem-solving abilities.
Final Interview: A meeting with higher management to discuss your overall fit and long-term goals.

I interviewed at EY (Thessaloníki, Western Macedonia)
Interview
The interview process with EY was smooth overall. It included an HR interview and a technical interview, both around 30 minutes long. The interviewers were friendly and professional, which made the experience comfortable. The technical interview felt more like a conversation rather than just a series of questions, so it was engaging and less stressful.
They went one after the other and before them i had a call with the HR person. I think the process went smooth and had no issues or complaints
Overall very good interview experience
