Python test for interview: free practice with answers
What a Python screening round looks like, five sample questions in the same style, and the full free test with every answer explained.
What the real round usually looks like
Most Python interview tests are ten to twenty multiple-choice questions, sometimes followed by a short practical task. 80% is the pass mark here; junior screenings expect you to read short snippets and predict output. Requirements vary by employer, so treat the benchmark as a floor.

Common questions
What Python level do junior roles test?
Core syntax, lists and dicts, slicing, functions, exceptions and reading files. Frameworks come later in the process, if at all.
Do I need to run code during the test?
No. The questions are code reading. Running the snippets afterwards in a Python shell is a good way to study.
Which Python version?
Python 3. All snippets use current syntax.
