🔹 DATA ANALYST – INTERVIEW REVISION SHEET
1️⃣ Role Clarity
> “A data analyst collects, cleans, analyzes data, and converts it into insights that help businesses make decisions.”
2️⃣ SQL (Most Important)
Must-know clauses:
• SELECT, WHERE, ORDER BY, LIMIT
• GROUP BY, HAVING
• JOINS (INNER, LEFT)
• Subqueries, CTEs
• Window functions (ROW_NUMBER, RANK)
Golden rules:
• WHERE → before aggregation
• HAVING → after aggregation
• LEFT JOIN → keeps all left table rows
• NULLs break calculations → use COALESCE
Classic questions:
• Top N per group
• Find duplicates
• Running totals
3️⃣ Excel Essentials
Formulas:
• IF, XLOOKUP
• COUNTIFS, SUMIFS
• TRIM, LEFT, RIGHT
Core features:
• Pivot tables
• Conditional formatting
• Data validation (dropdowns)
Avoid:
• Merged cells
• Hard-coded values
4️⃣ Power BI / Tableau
Concepts:
• Data model (star schema)
• Relationships (one-to-many)
• Measures > calculated columns
Must-know DAX:
• Total Sales = SUM(Sales[Amount])
• YTD Sales = TOTALYTD(SUM(Sales[Amount]), Sales[Date])
Design rules:
• KPIs on top
• One story per dashboard
• Minimal visuals
5️⃣ Statistics (Only What Matters)
• Mean vs Median
• Standard deviation
• Correlation ≠ causation
• Outliers distort averages
• Use median for Salaries, House prices

1. What happened
2. Why it happened
3. What should be done
Example:
> “Sales dropped due to lower traffic in one region, so I’d recommend increasing marketing spend there.”
9️⃣ Project Explanation Template
> “The goal was . I used to clean data, to analyze, and to visualize. The key insight was . The business impact was .”
Memorize this.

Important Excel, Tableau, Statistics, SQL related Questions with answers
1. What are the common problems that data analysts encounter during analysis?
The common problems steps involved in any analytics project are:
Handling duplicate data
Collecting the meaningful right data at the right time
Handling data purging and storage problems
Making data secure and dealing with compliance issues
2. Explain the Type I and Type II errors in Statistics?
In Hypothesis testing, a Type I error occurs when the null hypothesis is rejected even if it is true. It is also known as a false positive.
A Type II error occurs when the null hypothesis is not rejected, even if it is false. It is also known as a false negative.
3. How do you make a dropdown list in MS Excel?
First, click on the Data tab that is present in the ribbon.
Under the Data Tools group, select Data Validation.
Then navigate to Settings > Allow > List.
Select the source you want to provide as a list array.
4. How do you subset or filter data in SQL?
To subset or filter data in SQL, we use WHERE and HAVING clauses which give us an option of including only the data matching certain conditions.
5. What is a Gantt Chart in Tableau?
A Gantt chart in Tableau depicts the progress of value over the period, i.e., it shows the duration of events. It consists of bars along with the time axis. The Gantt chart is mostly used as a project management tool where each bar is a measure of a task in the project

Excel Scenario-Based Questions Interview Questions and Answers :
Scenario 1) Imagine you have a dataset with missing values. How would you approach this problem in Excel?
Answer:
To handle missing values in Excel:
1. Identify Missing Data:
Use filters to quickly find blank cells.
Apply conditional formatting:
Home → Conditional Formatting → New Rule → Format only cells that are blank.
2. Handle Missing Data:
Delete rows with missing critical data (if appropriate).
Fill missing values:
Use =IF(A2="", "N/A", A2) to replace blanks with “N/A”.
Use Fill Down (Ctrl + D) if the previous value applies.
Use functions like =AVERAGEIF(range, "<>", range) to fill with average.
3. Use Power Query (for large datasets):
Load data into Power Query and use “Replace Values” or “Remove Empty” options.
Scenario 2) You are given a dataset with multiple sheets. How would you consolidate the data for analysis?
Answer:
Approach 1: Manual Consolidation
1. Use Copy-Paste from each sheet into a master sheet.
2. Add a new column to identify the source sheet (optional but useful).
3. Convert the master data into a table for analysis.
Approach 2: Use Power Query (Recommended for large datasets)
1. Go to Data → Get & Transform → Get Data → From Workbook.
2. Load each sheet into Power Query.
3. Use the Append Queries option to merge all sheets.
4. Clean and transform as needed, then load it back to Excel.
Approach 3: Use VBA (Advanced Users)
Write a macro to loop through all sheets and append data to a master sheet.
Hope it helps :)

12) What is hypothesis testing?
Answer: Hypothesis testing is a statistical method used to determine if there is enough evidence in a sample to infer that a certain condition holds true for the entire population.
13) What is the difference between mean, median, and mode?
Answer:
⦁ Mean: The average of all numbers.
⦁ Median: The middle value when data is sorted.
⦁ Mode: The most frequently occurring value in a dataset.
14) What is data normalization?
Answer: Normalization is the process of organizing data to reduce redundancy and improve integrity, often by dividing data into related tables.
15) How do you handle missing data?
Answer: Missing data can be handled by removing rows, imputing values (mean, median, mode), or using algorithms that support missing data.
