About
Turning business data into reports, dashboards and answers: SQL, Excel, a BI tool, and a lot of explaining to people who do not read charts. Entry is a graduate analyst role in a bank, consultancy, e-commerce or SaaS company, or a move from operations by someone who was already the spreadsheet person. Bengaluru is the graph's most common location. After a few years people split towards data science, product or operations leadership.
