Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Informatica.
Consultant
Had a good experience with the interview process. The panel was very knowledgeable and accommodating, which gave me enough time to clearly explain my points and background. They asked a lot of code and scenario-based questions that were a bit more challenging than average. The panel made sure to offer feedback afterward, which was helpful.

Senior Consultant
There were 3 rounds for the interview. Questions touched on data modeling, SQL optimization, and general knowledge of data lakes and data warehouses. Simple coding tasks involving SQL and Linux were also included. The overall interview process was good, and HR was engaging.
- SQL and Linux coding test
- What are the ACID properties?

Consultant
I applied online and got a call from the recruiter about two weeks later to schedule a meeting with the Hiring Manager. No typical HR screening questions, just scheduling. Then I moved on to the next round and talked with the Hiring Manager about my career goals and background. The last round was a panel with some of the technical managers where they asked questions about technical situations like 'what would you do when....' and went deep into specific areas of my technical background. Knowing about the company and having solid reasons for wanting to join Informatica is crucial.

- What is your experience with Linux?
- Tell me about your background with Oracle.
