Biggest thing is proving that you know how to drive home the so what without presenting all the data insights.

I guess it would depend on the interview format. I’ve seen a range from them sending data a few days before and having you present it or just quantitative questions in person. I think either way, your best bet is doing what you are doing with different cases.

Also depends on the type of DA role. When I was in DA, my role had nothing financial and was product quality performance and usage analytics (root cause analysis on a big data scale). Some of these can be less business focused and more heavily focused on engineering. I guess my point is to focus on exactly what the role will require and not to always get hung up on the business high level numbers if that’s not what they value. Focus on the “customer” for your data insights and their needs.

Looks like role isn't expecting too much technical exp (just SQL, data viz and python/r as a plus) but more understanding the business, tracking metrics, working with stakeholders and helping drive insights using data

How many years of exp do you have? Just curious as I’m trying to make a similar leap to industry

3.5 years

Hi fishes,

Had an interview with Hexaware and 3 days back HR1 called me and said she will send the offer letter next week. 2 days back HR2 called me and said a client interview is scheduled for you and I attended that. Now if I fail to clear the client interview round, will I not receive the offer letter that is promised by the HR1?
