Interview
The interview process for a Data Engineer position at Wells Fargo typically begins with an initial HR/recruiter screening to assess your background and experience. This is followed by one or more technical interviews, where you’ll face questions on SQL, Python, ETL processes, cloud platforms (like AWS or Azure), and data modeling. You may also be asked to solve coding problems and demonstrate knowledge of big data technologies such as Hadoop or Spark

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe an ETL pipeline and give tech stack examples used
mostly the questions were on sorting algorithms and searching algorithms, easy level and also on OS and SQL, also asked questions related to my future plans.overall the interview level was easy
Technical interviewer had a condescending tone and attitude and he was interested in showing his superiority . Very poor experience as candidates should be treated humanely and with respect. Good company work culture though.
