WTF does a Data Analyst Do?

You can think of this newsletter like the friend who is never afraid to let you know you have something in your teeth.

I was able to rewrite a SQL query in Tableau. This allowed the data to be pulled, separately depending on which view you are looking at.

As a Data Analyst you need to have these sort of skills in your tool belt... I am learning this the hard way.

  • Writing code to pull in data into a Google Cloud Data base

  • Providing summary information on the data in the database (When it was pulled, unique values, unique months, etc.)

In your work as a Data Analyst you can wear many hats, be prepared :)

PS this is my first 'summary' newsletter... and my first one in a while! Hit me up with a quick reply.. did you:

a) hate it

b) like it

c) love it!

And tell me why!
