Hey, am i speaking with Quy Nguyen?
Candidate
Yes.
Origa
Great! This is Lizzy from Qode. I'm calling about your application for the Data Engineer position. Do you have about 10 minutes to chat?
Candidate
Yes. I do.
Origa
Awesome! So, I'll be asking you a few questions about your work experience, skills, and projects. Is that okay with you?
Candidate
Yep.
Origa
Perfect! Let's start with your data engineering experience. Can you tell me about a recent project where you worked on data warehousing or data lakes? What were your contributions and the tech stack you used?
Candidate
Um, I actually don't have any experience with data engineering or data lakes.
Origa
Got it, thanks for letting me know. How about your experience with web scraping and data crawling? Can you share a project where you used these techniques?
Candidate
Yeah. I've used the Selenium and Beautiful Soup in Python to web scraping.
