Hey, great video :) Couple of those I got during some interviews. To add - couple from my side: once interviewer asked me about star schema and other types just to tell briefly + generally about relationships and how can I check/ use diagnostics in PBI

[kahhengyeong]

Is Power BI hard? Well, I learnt 100% of it online, via Youtube (yes your channel is the major help :) ) and Google.
But it needs not a genius with programming knowledge, though a strong interest in statistics and some good knowledge in Excel does help.

A question I was asked recently was, "What's the difference between a measure and a calculated column." It was a little tricky, but would love to hear your explanation!

On the data story question you should mention bookmarks and powerpoint integration as these are useful tools for telling data stories.

3:15 Ruth, I'd add as first step get a use case that brings value to the business,
otherwise you could end up creating an awesome and good looking report that won't be used.

Adding on to this, I was asked about DAX in details, like time intelligent functions, variables, implicit n explicit measures, then service part, data gathering etc .. depends on the level which candidate is applying for ... I really appreciate you for answering honestly the question about the power bi for beginners ..easy or not .. it requires time n practice ..

[williamrhopkins]

On the data storage questions I would give good marks to a candidate who could describe Sql Server Analysis Services and ite column oriented compression techniques and knew that PBI uses the same technology to store and query data. More marks on this point if someone knew that you can connect to this internal instance in desktop with tools like Dax studio. Even more marks for a description of import, live and direct query.
