Data Analyst Interview Questions

46,398 data analyst interview questions shared by candidates

In the first round, they asked me 2–3 Python questions, around 4–5 SQL questions (including joins and basic queries), and 1 aptitude-based question. In the second round, I was asked statistics and probability questions, followed by a complex Python coding problem which I was asked to solve live — but the interviewer had to leave midway and asked me to submit it via email instead.

The questions were STAR questions speaking on past experiences as well as current experiences. I have a broad background, so it was natural to answer. Panels can be uncomfortable, but this was a very natural discussion more than a forced interview. The questions were technical as well as personal.
