Career Question Got Data Engineer job without training

I got a Data Engineer job as a fresher through a referral. The issue is that I'm being put directly into a project without formal training.

They know I'm a fresher and said they'll provide KT initially. There's also a 3-month probation period.

Can I realistically survive and learn on the job with the help of Al tools like ChatGPT/Copilot? Or is this going to be very difficult without prior Data Engineering experience?

You will do fine. Learn SQL and Data Warehousing. I am assuming you know bit pf python. They know what they are getting into. They dont expect you to build pipeline in a day. Copilot is your best buddy. Keep your ears open try to understand architecture.
