Interviewing an ERP Analyst

I would ask them how they will approach the project if hired.

What I would look for is an initial focus on your business objectives - the analyst should want to spend time talking with the senior management team about your business strategy.

Next, the analyst should look at business requirements. This involves input from business unit managers and workers regarding how they support the business objectives.

Next, the analyst should put together a business objective - business requirement chart that links the two, and then get confirmation by the senior management and business unit leaders. This should include a priority on the business requirements.

With a confirmend set of business objectives and requirements to work from, a technical requirements chart can be built. ERP vendor selection should come from their meeting these technical requirements.
