Candidates describe Wipro's Data Analyst interview as basic-to-moderate, with most of the weight on SQL fundamentals and your ability to explain your own projects. Several reports begin with an online aptitude test covering reasoning, quantitative and verbal questions, followed by a technical interview and an HR conversation. One candidate also mentions a group discussion, and another a case study or data task before HR.
In the technical round, SQL comes up most often. Reported topics include joins (left, right and inner), WHERE conditions, subqueries, GROUP BY and HAVING, and a query for the department with the maximum salary. One candidate was also asked about the default sort order in SQL. Excel (VLOOKUP, pivot tables, debugging errors), Power BI or Tableau, and basic Python also appear, though not for every candidate. One person was asked about chart types such as donut versus pie.
Project walkthroughs are common. Candidates were asked to introduce themselves, describe a final-year project or other resume projects, and explain the tools they used and the business impact. Expect follow-ups on anything listed on your resume.
HR conversations covered strengths and weaknesses, why Wipro, future plans, and why candidates wanted to switch companies. Most reports were no-offer outcomes, so practice explaining simple concepts clearly rather than only knowing them.

The process felt pretty straightforward and leaned heavily on basics rather than anything advanced. I first went through an aptitude-style screening, then a group discussion, and then the interview itself. The written part was easy enough, with English and attention-to-detail style questions, and the discussion round was more about communication than deep technical knowledge. In the interview, they spent most of the time on SQL and Excel. I was asked about VLOOKUP, pivot tables, and how to debug errors in Excel, which made it clear they wanted someone comfortable with day-to-day reporting work. They also asked a few SQL fundamentals like joins, WHERE conditions, left join versus right join, and subqueries. There were a couple of follow-up questions on work culture and general fit, so it wasn’t just technical grilling. One thing that stood out was how much they cared about explaining things clearly; even some of the non-technical questions were really testing how I communicated and whether I could convince someone of my point of view. I also got a few resume-based questions and basic HR prompts like strengths and weaknesses, plus a couple of questions that felt more like checking general awareness and confidence than domain depth. Overall, it was not a very hard interview, but it did require being solid on Excel, SQL, and basic communication. I didn’t make it to the next round, so I felt I probably underperformed on the practical Excel/SQL side or didn’t come across strongly enough in the conversation. If I had to do it again, I’d be ready to talk through Excel formulas and pivot-table use cases quickly and cleanly, and I’d practice explaining simple SQL concepts out loud without overcomplicating them.

Synthesized from candidate reports. Individual experiences may vary.
Candidates report an online aptitude-style test as the first step, covering logical reasoning, quantitative ability and verbal or English questions, sometimes with attention-to-detail items. It typically works as a filter rather than a deep technical test, so review standard aptitude formats beforehand.
One candidate describes a group discussion that focused on communication, and another reports completing a case study or data task before the HR discussion. These steps do not appear in every report, so they may depend on the hiring track or location. Practice speaking clearly and structuring simple business answers.
Candidates report a conversational technical round covering SQL joins, GROUP BY, HAVING and subqueries, plus Excel (VLOOKUP, pivot tables), Power BI or Tableau, and basic Python. Interviewers often asked for a walkthrough of projects listed on the resume, so prepare to explain tools and results.
The final conversation is typically with HR, in person or online. Candidates report questions on strengths and weaknesses, why they want Wipro, future plans, why they are switching companies, and working with stakeholders or teammates. Prepare concise, honest answers.
