Data Analyst, AI & Data

EY’s interview process typically starts with an online aptitude test followed by a technical interview focusing on SQL, ETL concepts, and BI tool proficiency. Candidates then face a managerial round that assesses problem‑solving, communication, and stakeholder‑management abilities, and finally an HR round that evaluates cultural fit and discusses compensation. Preparation should include hands‑on practice with Power BI/Qlik, SQL query optimisation, and scenario‑based data‑analysis case studies.

EY promotes a collaborative, inclusive environment where learning is continuous and employees are encouraged to take ownership of their growth. The firm offers flexible working hours, remote‑work options, and a strong emphasis on work‑life balance, backed by robust mentorship and leadership programs.
