She had 3 years of experience in support and had worked with Tech Mahindra and recently switched to <strong>Cisco as a Big Data Developer with a 60% hike in her salary<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>What a great achievement for Prerna !!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s see how satisfactory Prerna is after sharing her experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hi Prerna. Congratulations on a new job and such a good hike in your salary. Can you share with us your past experience with Tech Mahindra?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThank you. Yes of course. I completed my 3 years of working in a Technical Support Role and later I realized that my learning has become zero. I am a person who cannot sit idle and desire to learn more and more. This thought in my mind made me change my way as I could not get much exposure from this job. So I decided to learn a new technology that can enhance my knowledge and can earn me a better job profile.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q. What was your next step when you quit your job?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAfter working on PLSQL and Unix, I thought of changing my career path and learn something which is the need of the day. I searched for many technologies and finally made a mind to learn big data as it is the most demanding technology now. It is one such technology that may create wonders if properly put into action.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>New technology is not good or evil in or of itself. It is all about how people choose to use it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. So what steps did you take to kick start your career with Big Data?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWhile searching for a full-fledged Big Data course, I surveyed for many institutions and finally landed up enrolling for certified <a href=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/hadoop-spark-developer-course\/\"><em><strong class=\"df-success-story\">Big Data Hadoop and Spark training course<\/strong><\/em><\/a> at DataFlair for an expertise learning.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q. We would like to know in detail, How did DataFlair help you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cCourse curriculum and training pedagogy are excellent. The instructor is extremely helpful in taking students to the expert level. He kept motivating me to learn more and more for a proper career. Additionally, the easy to learn tutorials and videos helped me to understand the concept clearly and the quiz questions and mock interviews were a great source of preparing for the interviews. I also practiced and learned a lot from the Big Data live project and cleared all my queries with the support team.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q. Describe your interview experience along with the questions that were asked to you.<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe interview was mainly focused on Spark Streaming and Hadoop Distributed File System. There were five technical rounds and two rounds of HR discussion. The questions that they asked were:<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li>Explain spark streaming with example.<\/li>\n<li>Explain the projects that you worked on.<\/li>\n<li>Why should we select you?<\/li>\n<li>Why big data and what do you know about it.<\/li>\n<li>What is currying? Can explain with an example?<\/li>\n<li>What is ClassTag?<\/li>\n<li>Basically Spark works with RDD. How SSpark internally handles dataframe?<\/li>\n<li>How to create a dataframe without using datasource API or toDF?<\/li>\n<li>Explain internals of Spark architecture<\/li>\n<li>When stages are created?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Q. What would be your message for the upcoming aspirants?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cKeep learning as the desire to learn never ends till your last day. But make sure whatever you learn, take it to the expert level to achieve your goals.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Q. Your thoughts for DataFlair.<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cBest place to learn big data and start a career in this domain. Nothing can be better than this institute.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Thank you, Prerna. We are obliged to see you succeed. We wish you more success.<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Thank you so much\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is how Big Data became the pursuit of happiness for Prerna Raikwar and she became a role model for the upcoming aspirants.<\/p>\n<p>Start gaining and <a href=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/hadoop-spark-developer-course\/\"><strong class=\"df-success-story\">start learning Big Data<\/strong><\/a> to transform your career.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow on &#8220;Keep learning as the desire to learn never ends till your last day. &#8211; Says Prerna&#8221; Who doesn\u2019t aspire to grow with the fastest growing technology for making their future bright?
