Interview Preparation Tips

General Tips: It's not a World Cup final and you're not Tendulkar. So relax, you don't have the burden of a nation's expectation on you. If you've managed to understand the fundamentals of algorithms, data structures, OS etc., cracking interviews shouldn't be hard. If you've not, then I guess you need at least a couple of months of intense preparation.

I took him through few major projects that I worked and how these impacted business. I made sure to keep everything aligned to data analyst role. I spoke about what Data visualization tools (Domo/tableau) and languages(SQL) I had used previously to analyze data. He had follow up questions and I again made sure to explain clearly by highlighting my role. Next , there was one scenario based question asked.
Q: There are a couple of reliance stores that are bleeding(doing really bad) in one region. You have all the necessary data related to these stores. What would be those factors that you will consider first ? What will you do to ensure these stores do well.
