Feedback on previous submissions : I do not see Spark experience reflected in any of the shared profiles. The customer is not willing to consider candidates without prior Spark exposure. The expectation is not limited to Talend alone resources should have at least basic knowledge and some hands-on exposure to Spark and Amazon S3,EC2 etc along with ETL-Talend. My hunch is then the resource isn t going to be well versed or have in depth experience that is required for the role.
