Business Analyst Interview Questions and Answers | 35 Essential Questions

Practicing business analyst interview questions and answers are a key part of BA interview preparation. In addition to researching the industry and companies you will be interviewing with, being equipped with sample interview questions that are likely to be asked will be your biggest asset toward landing your next business analyst job. In this video, I’ll be sharing my list of the 35 essential business analyst interview questions and answers. The example answers provided are from my experience as an experienced business analyst. However, the answers can be useful for individuals with no formal business analyst experience as well. You would just need to reframe the responses to convey what you “would do” instead of what you have done in past. You can also pull from any similar experiences from the past that may also demonstrate some of the same skill sets. Also, be sure to incorporate the business analysis best practices that are provided in the examples.

In addition to the business analyst interview questions and answers, I will also provide the most common “types” of interview question formats and provide general tips on how to approach the questions when formulating your responses.

I don't believe this 😲😲 i thought that business analytics is all about using tools like excel, tableau, power bi, etc.
But after this I guess I need to work more on such questions and different business scenarios 😲.
