Why did you wait until now to ask
Know what a RDBMS is and everything related. Know VLookups, HLookups. Have a fundamental knowledge of statistics and related sampling methods; also know regression and cluster analysis but not super important. Basically be pretty good at math, have a base of programming knowledge and an interest to learn more
GF has offer and they've got an opportunity in their D&A group, thought I'd give it a shot. Best case scenario IMP
Am I the only one that find hilarious someone referencing Hlookups and Vlookups for a data analytics interview? I'm more in the predictive analytics side of the industry, and even so we never use excel in the data staging phase (it's all about SQL joins for us)...
Now my $0.02: when interviewing folks, I always ask them (after a 1 min intro about a random client/business issue) to walk me through all the steps of an engagement and how they would do things. Given my experience, I always push people to spend a lot of time explaining how they would get the data (even brainstorming about secondary data), what kinds of tools/techniques they're familiar with for data preparation, how they'd model the business issue (what kinds of variables they'd use, performance metrics...), and finally how they'd document the project (paying special attention if they know the basics of model risk management). Here and there during the interview I'd throw a few technical questions, like: explain in simple words what missing imputation techniques you like and why, tell me what's the difference between an inner join and a left join, explain what's backtesting, what's your favorite R/Python package/library and why, etc.
They used their past 3 engagements, summarized them into 3 paragraphs and asked questions I'd ask, data I'd need, what analyses I'd run. Did well, but not great. Really enjoyed meeting the team & hope I get the opportunity. Thanks for the input here
@D2, that's really helpful. Looking into those now (I'm a wizard at excel, but don't do much outside of it. And only use it within financial analyses)
@D1 because I found out Wednesday, sent an email asking how to prepare and was waiting for a response/other excuses lol
What firm do you have this interview with ? Another big4
Same company, office in western europe
