Data Analyst INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
👇👇

1.Can you name the wildcards in Excel?

Ans: There are 3 wildcards in Excel that can ve used in formulas.

Asterisk (*) – 0 or more characters. For example, Ex* could mean Excel, Extra, Expertise, etc.

Question mark (?) – Represents any 1 character. For example, R?ain may mean Rain or Ruin.

Tilde (~) – Used to identify a wildcard character (~, *, ?). For example, If you need to find the exact phrase India* in a list. If you use India* as the search string, you may get any word with India at the beginning followed by different characters (such as Indian, Indiana). If you have to look for India” exclusively, use ~.

Hence, the search string will be india~*. ~ is used to ensure that the spreadsheet reads the following character as is, and not as a wildcard.


2.What is cascading filter in tableau?

Ans: Cascading filters can also be understood as giving preference to a particular filter and then applying other filters on previously filtered data source. Right-click on the filter you want to use as a main filter and make sure it is set as all values in dashboard then select the subsequent filter and select only relevant values to cascade the filters. This will improve the performance of the dashboard as you have decreased the time wasted in running all the filters over complete data source.


3.What is the difference between .twb and .twbx extension?

Ans:
A .twb file contains information on all the sheets, dashboards and stories, but it won’t contain any information regarding data source. Whereas .twbx file contains all the sheets, dashboards, stories and also compressed data sources. For saving a .twbx extract needs to be performed on the data source. If we forward .twb file to someone else than they will be able to see the worksheets and dashboards but won’t be able to look into the dataset.


4.What are the various Power BI versions?

Power BI Premium capacity-based license, for example, allows users with a free license to act on content in workspaces with Premium capacity. A user with a free license can only use the Power BI service to connect to data and produce reports and dashboards in My Workspace outside of Premium capacity. They are unable to exchange material or publish it in other workspaces. To process material, a Power BI license with a free or Pro per-user license only uses a shared and restricted capacity. Users with a Power BI Pro license can only work with other Power BI Pro users if the material is stored in that shared capacity. They may consume user-generated information, post material to app workspaces, share dashboards, and subscribe to dashboards and reports. Pro users can share material with users who don’t have a Power BI Pro subscription while workspaces are at Premium capacity.
