Which results matter for your vacancy?
- SQLAsk how they would filter records, join related tables and verify a query result.
- Numerical ReasoningAsk them to interpret a table, calculate a rate and explain what the figures imply.
- Microsoft ExcelDiscuss formulas, cell references and checks in a small spreadsheet.
- Logical ReasoningAsk them to explain the relationships and assumptions behind a conclusion.

BEFORE YOU START
Your questions, answered.
Can I tailor this assessment to my Data Analyst vacancy?
Yes. Start with SQL, Numerical Reasoning, Microsoft Excel, Logical Reasoning, Power BI, then keep the tests that match your responsibilities. For example, use SQL to explore queries & filtering. You can add or remove tests before inviting candidates.
Does this assess practical Data Analyst work?
Candidates answer multiple-choice questions in SQL, Numerical Reasoning, Microsoft Excel, Logical Reasoning, Power BI online. They do not complete your day-to-day work inside your own systems. Add a short work sample based on checking a data extract before sharing an analysis to explore application alongside the test results.
Why is SQL included?
Checks whether candidates can write the queries the job needs, not just read them. Ask how they would filter records, join related tables and verify a query result. Review whether this area reflects the responsibilities of your vacancy before retaining it.
How long does this Data Analyst assessment take?
The recommended selection contains 5 tests and allows 50 minutes across its timed tests. Adding or removing tests, or adjusting time allowances, can change the total.
Will I see a separate result for each test?
Yes. Review SQL, Numerical Reasoning, Microsoft Excel, Logical Reasoning, Power BI separately so a strength in one area does not hide a gap in another. Use the detail to focus interviews and relevant work samples. View the sample report.
