RE: How do you load partial data after job failed
 
There are lot of ways of doing this.

But we keep the Extract , Transform and Load proess seperately.

Generally only load job never failes unles there is a data issue.
All data issues are cleared before in trasform only.

there are some DB tools that do this automatically

If you want to do this manually. Keep track of number of records in a has file or test file.
Update the file as you insert the record.
if job failed in the middle then read the number from the file and process the records from there only ignoring the record numbers before that 
try @INROWNUM function for better result.
