Introducing Study Plans: A Smarter Way to Prepare for Interviews

We are excited to announce the launch of Study Plans, a structured and focused way to prepare for interviews on Interview Query.

Interview preparation often feels overwhelming. With limited time, candidates do not want endless lists of scattered questions. What they need is a clear interview preparation roadmap that provides focus and saves time.

After analyzing thousands of preparation journeys, we uncovered three consistent needs:

• A structured study plan for interviews that highlights what to learn first
• A way to track interview prep progress over time
• Guidance on which interview questions matter most for each role

Study Plans were created to meet these needs directly.

Each Study Plan contains 50 handpicked interview questions built around the skills that matter most for a given role. To create them, we worked with industry experts and analyzed over 100,000 real interview experiences to ensure that every question reflects actual hiring expectations.

What Is Inside Each Study Plan

Preparing for interviews becomes far easier with a structured roadmap. Each Study Plan is designed to provide focus and measurable progress while covering the essential skills for your role.

Inside each Study Plan you will find:

• Curated questions aligned with your target role
• Progress tracking so you can measure preparation
• Monthly rankings to compare performance with peers
• Difficulty indicators to guide your study flow

With this structure in place, you can stop worrying about where to start and focus instead on building confidence.

Interview prep is never one-size-fits-all. Different roles require different skills, so we created six role-specific study plans for interviews, tailored to the unique challenges of data and analytics positions.

Here are the Study Plans you can start today:

• Data Science 50

  A comprehensive track covering SQL, data modeling, algorithms, analytics, product metrics, statistics, machine learning, system design, A/B testing, and large language models to prepare you for every aspect of a data science interview.

• Data Analytics 50

  Focused on practical applications with questions in SQL, analytics, statistics, business case solving, experimentation, and visualization to reflect the real-world challenges of a data analyst role.

• Product Analytics 50

  Designed for product-focused roles, this plan builds skills in analytics, product metrics, A/B testing, SQL, visualization, and programming through scenarios that mirror day-to-day product decision making.

• Business Analytics 50

  Created for strategy-oriented positions, this plan blends analytics, SQL, problem solving, forecasting, time series, visualization, statistics, and coding to strengthen both technical and business judgment.

• Business Intelligence 50

  Tailored for BI and reporting specialists, this plan emphasizes SQL, analytics, dashboards, batch and stream processing, product metrics, experimentation, and statistics to help you showcase strong reporting and insights expertise.

• Supply Chain 50

  Built for operations-heavy roles, this plan covers logistics, SQL, forecasting, time series analysis, problem solving, analytics, visualization, and estimation to prepare you for complex supply chain interview scenarios.

You can access them right now on the Interview Questions page.

The interview landscape continues to evolve, and so will Study Plans.

We are currently developing new Study Plans for Machine Learning Engineer 50 and AI Engineer 50 to meet the growing demand for AI and ML expertise.

This is only the beginning. Study Plans will continue to expand, giving candidates the clarity, focus, and structure they need to prepare effectively for the interviews that matter most.

How are the 50 questions selected?

We analyzed over 100,000 real interview experiences and worked with experts to curate the most common interview questions tested for each role.

Can I work on multiple study plans at once?

Yes — you can enroll in as many interview prep study plans as you like and track progress separately.

Are the questions updated over time?

Absolutely. We continuously update questions to reflect evolving interview trends and hiring expectations.

How do the rankings work?

Each month, your prep progress is tracked and compared with peers, so you can benchmark your interview readiness.

What if my target role is not listed?

We are actively developing more plans, including machine learning engineer study plans and AI engineer interview study plans. You can also continue practicing with our full library of curated interview questions.
