Our candidates consistently found that Tiger Analytics cares less about polished buzzwords and more about whether you can reason through data systems in a practical way. We’ve seen multiple reports of the interview leaning heavily on SQL, but not in a surface-level way: candidates were pushed on database concepts, live record handling, and query logic that reflects real production thinking. One candidate who received an offer said the most revealing part was being asked how to maintain live records in a database, which is a strong signal that Tiger wants analysts who understand how data behaves over time, not just how to extract it.
A recurring theme is that the company also likes to mix in problem-solving under pressure, even for analyst roles. Our candidates report live coding-style questions alongside SQL, including algorithmic problems like Number of Islands and ranking employees by salary within departments. That combination suggests they’re screening for people who can move between analytical reasoning and technical execution without getting flustered. We also saw Power BI, data modeling, OOPs, and DBMS basics come up, which tells us the bar is broader than many candidates expect.
The non-obvious trap here is assuming this is a pure analytics or dashboard interview. It isn’t. Tiger Analytics seems to value candidates who can explain why a query or schema choice makes sense, especially when the question shifts from textbook SQL to scenario-based design. In our view, the strongest candidates are the ones who can stay grounded in fundamentals while showing they understand how those fundamentals apply in messy, real-world data environments.

Synthesized from candidate reports. Individual experiences may vary.
An initial screening based on your background and fit for the Data Analyst role. In one experience, this was described as a standard resume screen before moving into the rest of the process.
A conversational HR round covering basic personal questions such as family background, hobbies, and general fit. This stage was straightforward and served as an early filter before the technical interviews.
A timed assessment with three medium-level coding questions. Candidates reported that this test could include problem-solving beyond SQL, setting the tone for a process that is more technical than a typical analyst interview.
The first technical round focused heavily on SQL and database fundamentals, along with analytics basics. Questions included practical SQL queries, ranking logic, and conceptual database topics such as maintaining live records.
A second technical round that continued probing SQL depth, DBMS concepts, and OOPs basics. Candidates also saw live coding-style problem solving, such as a Number of Islands question, to assess how they think under pressure.
