I'm excited to share that I’ve passed the Microsoft Certified: Fabric Data Engineer Associate (DP-700) exam! A big thank you to Will Needham and this great community for the valuable insight, guidance and support throughout the journey. The Youtube videos really helped me to study for this exam alongside work. I look forward to more Fabric projects to put more of these skills into practice. My insights to DP-700 - It helps to have the DP-600 so some of the topics are quite familiar. - Microsoft Learn during the exam is only helpful if you are looking for exactly one term. Otherwise you get lost in the flood of documentation. - Some PySpark and SQL questions that are easy to study for - Stick to the timeboxes recommended by Will. I wrote down the timeboxes on my notepad so I wouldn't lose track of them. Best regards ✌️
