  • Collaborate with development, infrastructure, database, and interface teams for complex issues.
  • Document all case activities, resolutions, and customer communications accurately.
  • Meet defined SLA, productivity, quality, and customer‑satisfaction metrics.
  • Participate in knowledge‑transfer sessions and contribute to improving SOPs and knowledge articles.
  • Identify recurring problems and suggest automation or process enhancements.
  • Work rotational shifts, including evenings, nights, and weekends, as required.

Tech Stack & Tools: Windows OS, ServiceNow, SQL (basic querying), networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS), basic scripting (PowerShell/Python), ITIL concepts, and AI‑assisted troubleshooting utilities.

Growth Path: Successful consultants can progress to Senior Technical Support Consultant, then to Technical Support Lead, or transition into roles such as Application Engineer, Product Specialist, or Project Manager within Altera’s broader ecosystem.

Why Join Altera? The company offers a supportive learning environment, exposure to real‑world healthcare challenges, and a clear career ladder. Freshers gain hands‑on experience with enterprise software, develop soft‑skills through customer interaction, and become part of a mission‑driven organization that values innovation and employee well‑being.

Technical questions 5
What is the difference between WHERE and HAVING clauses in SQL? Answer
Model answer: WHERE filters rows before any groupings are applied, while HAVING filters aggregated groups after GROUP BY has executed.
Explain SQL Window functions: ROW_NUMBER(), RANK(), and DENSE_RANK(). Answer
Model answer: ROW_NUMBER() assigns unique sequential integers. RANK() assigns identical ranks to ties and skips ranks. DENSE_RANK() assigns identical ranks to ties without skipping rank numbers.
How do you handle NULL and missing values during data cleaning in Python/Pandas? Answer
Model answer: Use .isna().sum() to identify missing values. Impute with mean/median using .fillna() or remove with .dropna(subset=[...]) depending on variance impact.
What is the difference between Star Schema and Snowflake Schema in Data Warehousing? Answer
Model answer: Star Schema has denormalized dimension tables directly connected to the central Fact table. Snowflake Schema normalizes dimension tables into sub-dimensions to minimize redundancy.
How do you calculate MoM (Month-over-Month) growth in SQL? Answer
Model answer: Use LAG(revenue, 1) OVER (ORDER BY month) to fetch the previous month's revenue and compute (revenue - prev_revenue) / prev_revenue * 100.
Behavioural & HR questions 3
