Some data engineering interview questions look simple.
But they are not really simple.
When an interviewer asks: “How do you make sure your data is trustworthy?”
They are not looking for: “I check the data manually.”
They want to hear things like:
dbt tests, source freshness, data quality checks, data contracts, not null, unique, accepted values, relationships, and pipeline validation.
That is the trap.
Many candidates know the tools, but they fail because they don’t know what the interviewer is really testing.
