Frequently asked questions about hiring your next statistician

Look for candidates with at least a bachelor’s degree in statistics, mathematics, or a related field. For more advanced positions, a master’s or Ph.D. may be preferred. Also, consider relevant work experience and proficiency in statistical software like R or SAS.

Consider giving a practical test or case study that involves data analysis, statistical modeling, and interpretation of results. You can also ask technical questions about specific statistical methods and their applications.

Key soft skills include strong communication abilities, critical thinking, attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and the ability to work in a team. Statisticians often need to explain complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

This depends on your specific needs. A generalist can handle a variety of statistical tasks, while a specialist might be better for niche industries or specific types of analysis. Consider your long-term projects and goals when making this decision.

Look for experience with big data technologies like Hadoop or Spark, and proficiency in programming languages like Python or SQL. Ask about their experience handling large datasets and the challenges they’ve faced.

While statistical principles are universal, industry-specific knowledge can be valuable. Look for candidates with experience in your field, or those who show a keen interest and ability to quickly learn about your industry.

Increasingly important, especially if your projects involve predictive modeling or pattern recognition. However, the level of expertise needed depends on your specific requirements. Basic familiarity is often beneficial.

Look for candidates who understand data protection regulations (like GDPR) and have experience in ethical data handling. Ask about their approach to data privacy and how they ensure the ethical use of data in their work.

During the interview, ask them to explain a complex statistical concept in simple terms. You could also request a sample presentation or report from their previous work to evaluate their communication skills.
