Interview Prompt

Clinical trial systems, commercial sales databases and patient support program feeds deliver about 40 million rows a day, mostly sales, and no dataset from any of them is exempt from governance. All of it lands in one shared warehouse that analysts and researchers read from. Design the ingestion pipeline and governance framework.

Summary

The FDA has opinions about your data pipeline.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Draw your pipeline on the design canvas: sources, transforms, storage and checks
  4. Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
