Data analyst guide: weekly work, analytics skills to test, interview questions and India vs Philippines
What a data analyst works on
- Write and maintain SQL against your warehouse, such as Snowflake, BigQuery or Redshift
- Build and own dashboards for product, sales, finance and support leaders
- Define metrics once, document them and keep every report using the same logic
- Investigate why a number moved and write up the answer in plain language
- Size and read A/B tests, and flag when a sample is too small to trust
- Run ad hoc deep dives on churn, pricing, funnel drop-off and cohort retention
- Work with data engineers to fix broken sources and add the fields analysis needs
Analytics skills to test
| Skill | What good looks like |
|---|---|
| SQL | Uses window functions and CTEs, checks for duplicate joins and explains query cost |
| Metric design | Writes a clear definition, names edge cases and spots metrics that are easy to game |
| Dashboards | Builds views a busy leader reads in a minute, with filters that don't break totals |
| Statistics | Knows confidence intervals, test power and when a change is just noise |
| Data quality | Reconciles numbers to a source of truth before sharing and logs known gaps |
| Storytelling | Leads with the answer, shows one chart that proves it and states what to do next |
Interview questions and how Exordiom vets
- Weekly active users dropped 12% overnight. What do you check first?
- Write a query for 90-day retention by signup month.
- How would you define an active customer for a usage-based product?
- A test shows a 2% lift. How do you decide whether to ship?
- Two dashboards disagree on revenue. How do you settle it?
- Tell us about an analysis that changed a decision.
Red flags: charts with no definitions, numbers shared without a sanity check, no grasp of sample size, and answers that describe data with no recommended action.
We recruit analysts who already hold good jobs, so we keep no bench. Candidates clear an AI interview built from your requirements, then human rounds that score character, acumen, grit and experience. Once your analyst starts, Hypercare check-ins happen in weeks 1 and 2, then every four weeks from week 6.
