First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Tipalti.
Data Analyst
First, an HR phone call. Then, a 30-minute Zoom call with the direct manager to get acquainted. Following that, an on-site assignment with two parts: first, a basic SQL query to compute % out of total, requiring a WITH statement. Second, analyze a large Excel file (around 400K rows, many columns) with company data, and present your insights. A tip: focus your analysis on MP vs AP.
- Can you share an instance of a project where you collaborated with the Product team?
- Write a SQL query to calculate the percentage of each value out of the total, using a WITH clause.
- Using the provided company data in the Excel file (approx. 400K rows, multiple columns), perform an analysis of your choice, with a suggestion to look at MP vs AP, and then present your conclusions.
Data Analyst
So I had my first interview for a data analyst job, it was with HR over the phone. It was pretty short, about 15 mins. They asked some basic stuff about my background, what experience I have, and why I'm interested in this role. Mostly just to see if I was a fit for the basic requirements and to give me some info on the job and the company vibe.
- Could you tell me a bit about yourself?
Data Analyst
The interview process involved 4 rounds: a conversation with the hiring manager, an HR chat, and meetings with two directors. It also included a technical skills assessment, and the entire process spanned over a month.
- Can you demonstrate your SQL abilities by answering these 3 questions?

Read reports →“Be ready for a simple SQL question where you need to be extremely fast. You'll be given a few tables and need to go through all their descriptions (about 20 terms), write the JOINs, etc., as if you already knew all the variables and tables beforehand. The main thing is speed because the rest is very basic.”
