About the role

A junior Power BI developer turns business questions into dependable data models and interactive reports. The panel is looking for sound modelling basics, sensible visual choices and a methodical approach to mismatched figures or slow reports. You should also be able to clarify vague requirements with non-technical users.

How to prepare

  1. Revise star schemas, table relationships, filter context and common DAX measures.
  2. Build a small report from raw data and check every headline figure against the source.
  3. Practise explaining a measure and its filter behaviour without relying on jargon.
  4. Review ways to reduce clutter and improve report performance.
  5. Prepare an example of how you translated a user request into a dashboard.

Common mistakes

  • Treating every table as separate instead of designing a coherent model.
  • Using calculated columns when a measure is the better fit.
  • Focusing on visual effects while the totals remain unverified.
  • Accepting a vague request without clarifying the decision it should support.
