Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Revature.
Data Engineer
The interview process felt really organized and went smoothly. It started with a basic technical check, looking at my fundamental knowledge, how I think logically, and if I can communicate well. The person interviewing me was professional and asked about my basics, how I solve problems, and if I'm eager to learn. The whole thing was open and fair, and I got a good idea of what they were looking for before moving forward with Revature.
- Can you describe your foundational knowledge and your learning style, particularly regarding basic programming, logical reasoning, and adapting to new tech?
- How do you feel about basic programming concepts and your problem-solving skills?
ETL Developer
It was a pretty straightforward interview, nothing too fancy. They asked some basic Java and SQL questions, and also about the Software Development Life Cycle. The interviewers weren't super deep, pretty much like an average Comp Sci grad. Nothing too crazy, basically just to filter out people who just clicked on the job online without any real skills. Just be upfront about what you know and don't know, and you'll do fine.
- Can you explain Encapsulation?
- What is method overloading?
- How would you retrieve data from a database?
Data Engineer
So the interview process had three rounds in total. First up was an online test, which had some aptitude questions, technical MCQs, and then two coding questions, one in Java and the other in SQL. After that, I had a technical interview over Microsoft Teams where we talked about my project experience and my technical knowledge. The last round was an HR interview, also on Teams, where they asked behavioral questions and we chatted about relocation and my availability.
- Can you tell me about a recent project you worked on?
- Describe how you used SQL and Python to solve a data problem in that project.
- What was your method for data cleaning and analysis during that project?
