Interview Prompt

Our retail stores run point-of-sale terminals that generate transactions all day. The business intelligence team currently gets a nightly batch of sales data but they want same-day visibility. We also have years of historical sales in our Snowflake warehouse that needs to stay consistent with whatever we build. Design a pipeline to bring POS data into Snowflake in near-real-time.

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write your pipeline design solution with real code execution
  4. Get instant feedback and a hire/no-hire decision
