Round 2 Technical Interview with Data Science Lead (Online)

The second round of interview was with the Data Science Lead. The focus was on collaboration and integrating algorithms and models into automated processes.

  • Question: How have you collaborated with Data Science teams in the past to integrate algorithms into data engineering processes?

I shared examples of projects where I had closely worked with Data Scientists to deploy their machine learning models into real-time and batch processing systems. I emphasized the need for seamless integration between data engineering and data science to deliver actionable insights.

Tip: Highlight projects where you worked closely with data scientists to implement machine learning models into automated data pipelines. Discuss how you ensured the models’ accuracy, scalability, and ease of maintenance within the data engineering systems.

CVS Health Interview Experience for Senior Data Engineer

I applied for Senior Data Engineer position at CVS Health through their online job portal. After submitting my application, I received an email confirming the receipt of my application. After 3 weeks, I was contacted by a Talent Acquisition Specialist to schedule an initial phone screening in which she explained about the role and asked me questions about my current work. The phone screening went well, and I was invited to participate in a series of online interviews.
