Interview Preparation Tips

Topics to prepare for PwC Associate interview:
  • Azure
  • SQL
  • Pyspark
Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Most of the questions will be related to the work or the projects that you worked on. There will be a lot of scenario based questions if you work on Cloud ETL tools like Azure/GCP/AWS.

First round: I was interviewed for Azure Data Engineer (it was my line of work). Most of the questions were scenario based and they also asked me about SQL and a few questions on it.

Second round: It was a MR, so it was not that technical. It was more of knowing about you and your skill set
