Humble Beginnings<\/h3>\n

Veeresh worked as a system engineer, and he was not very satisfied with his job. So, he decided to make a switch- a career switch.<\/em>\u00a0He had many questions in mind. What technology would be the best for him? What difficulties would he face? He had many more questions like these. So, he took a deep breath and hit Google. After searching for a while, he found \"Big Data\"<\/strong> suited him best. He chose Big Data because there is a high demand for Big Data professionals and companies pay well for skilled ones. Not only this, but Big Data will also survive long in the industry as a lot of data is generated on a day to day basis. So, there surely is a good future in this technology. After all this research, becoming a Big Data Expert was the only dream Veeresh had. Veeresh says -<\/p>\n

When I decided to switch my career in Big Data, I was nervous, what if I didn't understand the concepts of Big Data, who would be the best guide for me? All these questions were there in my mind. After a lot of research on Big Data and its benefits, I was prepared and started learning Big Data. I needed a guide for Big Data, for this I scanned many websites, read Google and Quora reviews and I found DataFlair as the best site to learn Big Data and Hadoop<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What was his first step toward upskilling himself?<\/h3>\n

If you are passionate about your dream, then you will surely find a way to achieve it. Veeresh had a passion for learning Big Data and Hadoop, so he found a way and that was DataFlair. He took a step ahead, enrolled for the Big Data Hadoop and Spark Course<\/strong><\/a>. After enrolling for the course, DataFlair provided him guidance and paved for him an easy Hadoop career\u00a0path.<\/p>\n

-he says<\/em><\/p>\n

As I had to upskill myself, I needed to work on the right skills and for that, I enrolled for the Big Data Hadoop and Spark course provided by DataFlair, that was my first step toward success<\/strong>. At DataFlair, I learned many things which were not possible for me to learn through Google. They provided me the best instructor, he answered all my questions. He helped me a lot.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

How DataFlair helped him in learning Big Data<\/h3>\n

DataFlair provided him a well-designed course that covers all the topics related to Big Data, Hadoop and its ecosystem. Also, the instructor answered all his questions, assigned many projects and assessments<\/strong> so that he could have hands-on\u00a0experience with Big Data. Along with this, we prepared him for the interview through our mock interview sessions. Let's hear it from Veeresh -<\/p>\n

DataFlair proved to be the right choice for learning Big Data and Hadoop. Here I got the chance to learn from the best instructor, he has an amazing knowledge of Big Data and Hadoop which I saw in the training sessions. Tes best of the training is the projects and assessments allotted to us. That proved helped when I was in the interview. Also, they gave the training how to answer a question in the interview. DataFlair played a major role in my Hadoop learning. The best institute I have ever seen with such a supportive team.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

His Experience in the Interview<\/h3>\n

Veeresh faced 2 technical rounds<\/strong> and cracked them. Questions were from the technologies mentioned in his resume - Spark, Hadoop, MapReduce, Big Data, Scala.<\/p>\n

My interview was quite tough, but I was prepared for this so cracked it easily. Before going for the interview, I watched the videos twice given by DataFlair and revise all the notes that helped me to answer the questions asked during the interview.<\/p>\n

In the end, I would like to thank DataFlair for their support. They turned my dream into reality. Today, I am a Big Data Expert; DataFlair served as the ladder up to it.
