      Customer Success Engineer Interview

      8 Aug 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Sydney
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks (Sydney) in Aug 2021

      Interview

      I had virtual onsite rounds. Firstly started with 2 behavioral rounds with Team Lead CSE and a Senior CSE. Then a take home code challenge assignment. Should be simple for Data Engineers with knowledge of Spark/Python/SQL. Shouldn't take more than 5-8 hours. Then more 4 rounds of behavior with Sales Head ANZ, Solution Architect, CSE Head APJ and then SVP Global CSE. Last 2 rounds lasted for 20 mins each wherein they were scheduled for 45 mins and 30 mins each, resp. This similarly happened with one my ex-colleagues too. So if they want to chuck you out, you'd last 20 mins with them. If it lasts for the intended durations, then you can imagine about getting through! I went through 7 rounds which lasted for 1.5 months. In the end I was told that my Tech and CSE skills are upto the mark for them. I mean if the tech skills were not upto the mark then they should have said no after 3rd round itself. It only reflects the incompetence in their hiring process which only ends up harassing and mentally draining the candidates! On top of that, the HR is also rude! Would never reply for your queries. Would only come back when you are asked for your availability for the subsequent rounds! This has been similarly reported by everyone over Glassdoor who have appeared for interview for this role! And yet these guys don't learn....

      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks in Dec 2022

      Interview

      The interview process is long, but very well organized and fair. The expectations for each interview are communicated clearly and every interviewer was very polite and honest. If I had to design an interview process in the future I would use the process I went through here as a template.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The interview questions are very fair. you do not need previous knowledge of databricks to pass, but review concepts on data science/ML, big data, data management, cloud and programing skills with python/sql.
