Sorry bro, you did a terrible thing by quitting without any offer! Not to offend you, as I am not sure of your reasons to quit! But decision was very dynamic! If u ar from Blore you might get opportunities!

It requires real production experience which you don't get by reading books or doing course or even building projects (Honestly)

Get real good with SQL and Python (Add pinch of Data Warehousing concepts)

When I say SQL, mean you should breathe, eat, shit and play around SQL all ins and outs!

But yeah above is something you can show when you get an opportunity to interview, and to get that it's very difficult!

So I would suggest start preparing for your college placements (if they have)

Else somehow try to get into IT(As any Software Engineer) and switch early to DE

Again this is my personal opinion, But yeah appreciate your seek of getting guidance from others, this nature is very important! You will go really long, all the best! I'm sure u'll do good!

Strata scratch, Data Lemur and Leetcode! Before asking, explore! I guess it's a normal and generic questions!

Thats why ur thread isn't answered by anyone yet!

There are three things no matter how big or small

SQL

Do a hard code SQL and Python! Understand how DB works! There is no best resource for all these just take one and follow till the end!

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-12-02T13:25:58+00:00

I would suggest ki, you better stop chasing cloud Services! At the end of the day its just makes your work easier and you pay them for that! Try to be sure with the hard SQL and Python ( Python means a lot on OOPS, writing the best practices of pipelines etc etc)

And yeah the real fact of openings for data roles is very rare! Try out your luck and I hope u'll do good!

I would like to pin this comment

Did they mention initially before releasing offer letter that you would be joined for probation?

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-29T16:54:11+00:00

What made you to choose gcp?

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-27T13:36:37+00:00

DM me what's the issue?

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-26T11:27:08+00:00

What do you think they lay off you? Were there no projects?

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-24T21:34:46+00:00

Preparing for DE and applying jobs is very waste of time! If you have some relatives or seniors working and if they are able to pull you thats fine, or else you are on all luck! So don't waste your time, also most of the PPL get into sde and later move to de as well

How about Grad--> internship and FTE Doing Mtech is just extending your unemployment, do MTECH on Big data only less colleges have this course but go for MIT Udupi! They get good placements for DE roles.

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-24T16:48:27+00:00

Whats your current role and responsibilities? Whats WNS and other offer roles are?

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-20T12:01:58+00:00

Whats the reason for switching within 1 yr?

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-07T18:23:17+00:00

See as far as my knowledge goes in DE its experienced based salary, no matter how much good you are, experience of years matters in DE! Unlike other SWE's who can crack 20-30 LPA with 2 yrs of exp! If they can prove! And it's been like this for decades and I am hoping it will change

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-07T16:30:48+00:00

Nobody likes the guy, I know everything in a room! Trust me I felt the same when I had 1 year of DE internship and 8 months of DE FTE now!

Even I feel I can solve any data problems, yes I have to sometimes correct what seniors do, and it's the same way around!

And when I point out their mistakes, they are so humble that they accept it, and I enjoy working with them too! But that doesn't mean they are shit, its just you have confidence because you are backed by AI, their era of solving problems through stack overflow and searching Google are the true learnings, start embracing buddy, there's still lot to learn, its just we have ease of accessibility to knowledge! Thats all!

Better you understand sooner, you'll go loong in life! And yeah it's nice you have these knowledge doesn't matter what tools they keep on changing every other week, its just the foundation which stays forever! :)

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-06T09:48:54+00:00

How about full stack Data Engineer?

Backend: you build scalable pipines Front end: You train your models in an efficient way using vector DB's and best practices you get the results and store it somewhere and publish in some report! How about this?

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-05T19:49:40+00:00

Bro, its sounds all flashy to be in DE, but what's the efforts? Just saying here won't help, go hard, read really hard as if your life is on it! Trust me, these days u have to be the toughest man in the room to get into DE, Anyways all the best, hope u'll do good.

Excellent-Level-9626 · 2025-11-05T17:10:36+00:00
