[7]
so this channel is all about expert career working abroad聽 and job interview skills! I upload two videos聽聽
[14]
every week and every wednesday i am sharing with聽 you guys promising tech companies that i think聽聽
[20]
you want to consider joining because i know how聽 important it is to join the right company for you聽聽
[30]
so let's dive in! shall we? so the company that聽 i want to talk about today is Databricks
[39]
okay in today's video i'm going to share with you聽 guys what is Databricks and why Databricks
[44]
and things you need to know when you are applying聽 for a job a Databricks and last but not least聽聽
[52]
my thoughts on future jobs okay! So what is data聽 bricks? simply saying Databricks is a unified analytics platform
[63]
compared to traditional聽warehouse system now employees can perform聽聽
[70]
different data related tasks on a unified聽analytics platform instead of using a lot of
[77]
different platforms to do different types聽 of data really works that's my understanding聽聽
[84]
so i always read customer success stories on the聽 website to understand their technologies better聽聽
[91]
and one of the customers says that Databricks is聽 just not only about using data more efficiently聽聽
[98]
but after using Databricks the way they work聽 becomes way more collaborative which leads them聽聽
[106]
to be more innovative if you want to learn more聽 about Databricks check out their website they聽聽
[111]
have a lot of resources that you can read so聽 definitely check it out if you're interested so聽聽
[117]
now let's talk about why databricks is an聽 interesting company? they have seven founders and聽聽
[123]
they are from Berkeley researchers so initially聽 they were not interested in starting a business聽聽
[130]
and also they were not interested in making a聽 revenue on the tech and why i think Databricks is聽聽
[138]
a great company to join for you guys especially聽 now is because they are planning to go on ipo聽聽
[145]
really soon i'm not sure when and how but that's聽 what the media says and that seems to be true聽聽
[153]
so so why does it matter? so let me give an example聽 so one of the companies that i was working for聽聽
[160]
in Singapore when i joined the company聽 they were already a public company they聽聽
[164]
are a public company but they were a聽 public company when i joined the company聽聽
[168]
but their stock price was like 35 or 40 when i joined聽 the company i can't remember 100% correctly but聽聽
[175]
within three years their stock price went up to聽 almost 200 dollars and it's now is more than 200聽聽
[183]
why does it matter to you? because when you聽 are joining a company there are many ways聽聽
[188]
you can negotiate right but at the same time Databricks features on the latest edition of Forbes聽聽
[195]
AI50 list i mean this company is growing massively聽 they are hiring a lot of employees all over the world
[203]
so so next now let's talk聽 about how to prepare for an interview at Databricks
[211]
okay so whether you're looking for a聽 job in sales, marketing, engineer, HR, finance, IT
[221]
you really need to know what company values聽 so from my understanding when i visited their聽聽
[227]
website i can see that they value three things聽 okay so first customer obsessed this means they聽聽
[236]
are very very customer centric company number two聽 Data. let the Data decide okay they believe in Data聽聽
[245]
so they let Data make a decision okay聽 so you need to know that okay data is聽聽
[252]
very very important for Databricks. number three collaboration they value聽聽
[259]
teamwork and collaboration so when you are聽 applying for a job a Databricks know there's聽聽
[264]
three values and make sure to pitch these three聽 keywords when you are in an interview so that way聽聽
[271]
they feel that oh this person is our person this聽 person believes in what we do right so and their聽聽
[279]
job description actually shows that they actually聽 value these three things so one of the marketing聽聽
[285]
positions they're looking for it says they want聽 a someone who can decide data-driven strategies聽聽
[294]
and for sales they prefer someone who worked at聽 a fast-growing company before and especially
[300]
at an early stage startup and even engineering job聽 position as well they are looking for a person聽聽
[307]
who is good at collaboration and teamwork. let's聽 talk about future jobs my thoughts on future jobs聽聽
[314]
okay so i can see that more and more companies聽 are hiring people who have critical thinking聽聽
[322]
and innovative thinking so this is very natural聽 in a way because now technologies are evolving聽聽
[330]
right even data engineer data scientists data聽 analysts companies want to hire people who have聽聽
[337]
critical thinking skills meaning they want to hire聽 people who can actually make the best decision聽聽
[345]
when they're looking at data right? it's not only聽 about data jobs only like sales, marketing, HR, IT, 聽聽
[353]
finance, all across the departments聽 they want to hire people who know聽聽
[358]
how important data is and who know how聽 data works you don't really need to have聽聽
[366]
in-depth knowledge like data engineers聽 data analysts and data scientists however聽聽
[371]
knowing a little bit about data will give you聽 a lot of competitiveness and you're going to聽聽
[377]
be so much competitive in the job market and聽 also as a business owner a solopreneur 聽
[383]
like me or entrepreneurs knowing how data works and聽 knowing how ai works knowing how technologies聽聽
[390]
