Sending a Firm a sample of Work

Hey all,

Currently interviewing for an Analyst position at a research firm and had an initial screening with HR. They want me to send a sample of work. Should I send a 15 slides ppt deck or type up a 2-3 page report? Does it make a difference. 

Appreciate any help, Thanks.
