To help make the process of finding and hiring Power BI developers smooth, we have developed this guide. Check out the entire list of skills and interview questions for hiring new talent.

Skills to look for in a Power BI developer

Hiring a proficient developer takes more than just scanning through stacks of applications. At a high level, Power BI developers should have the following skills in their arsenal:

1. Experience working with Power BI tools

To be considered a valuable Power BI developer, one must possess expertise in using Power BI tools and systems. Power BI developers are mostly tasked to work with large data sets and develop easy-to-comprehend visualizations. Such requirements make utilizing different Power BI tools imperative to success.

When reviewing applications for Power BI developer positions, look through resumes for mentions of experience. See if it mentions knowledge of Tableau, SAP, or any other Power BI tools.

2. Strong knowledge of Power BI stack

Large-scale organizations use a variety of Microsoft products and services for multiple requirements. These are implemented mostly for data warehousing and management, analytics, reporting, and business intelligence. For which the need to hire Power BI developers with previous experience using such tools becomes essential.

Try to consider Power BI developers with experience using Microsoft BI stacks like:

  • Power Pivot
  • SSRS
  • SSIS
  • SSAS

3. Strong data analysis capabilities

Data analytics is a primary skill that every Power BI developer must possess. Power BI assists in developing a bigger picture and understanding of the organizational requirements. So when you're looking to hire Power BI developers, try to find professionals who are experts at developing data visualizations.

4. Knowledge of software development

A Power BI developer does not need to be a master software developer but needs to have a basic idea. Power BI experts need to possess a functional level of software development for developing custom solutions.

When looking for new Power BI developers to expand your team, look for professionals with a strong technical background and software architecture.

5. Experience in data specific roles

Professionals with at least a few years of experience in data-specific roles can be of great help. Such a position enables developers to work and gain knowledge about utilizing existing BI tools. For which, finding professionals with skills like data management, modeling and warehousing, SQL querying, and business intelligence becomes essential.

Spend time understanding organizational requirements and filter out applicants not based on skill sets.

6. Efficient communication skills

Today, in the world of technology, communication has emerged as one of the primary skills. Collaboration is the way ahead which requires constant interaction and innovation with fellow developers. The importance of interpersonal communication has increased since the entire tech world went remote.

So, whenever you're hiring Power BI developers or for any similar role, it is highly recommended to find people who can communicate with ease and confidence. Look for people who want to be part of conversations and willingly contribute to development cycles.

Create a hiring funnel

Hiring for technical roles can be a tough task, especially if you're hiring for a role for the first time. But working with a hiring funnel can make the process a lot easier. It will help to analyze skill sets and experience levels and ensure you hire Power BI developers for your organization.
