Interview Prompt

The data lake has thousands of records stuck in an old schema, and a batch migration needs to reshape them all according to a list of field-level operations. Write a function that applies rename, add, remove, and type-cast operations to records, supporting nested fields via dot notation.

How This Interview Works

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