Why most analysts fail interviews
Most candidates get interviews wrong. Managers want action-oriented analysts who show impact, not just technical skills. That's why I built this checklist — to give you exactly what they look for. My goal is simple: to make sure the standout candidate is you.

Practical Analytics & Business Sense

Business-Impact Skills
Case studies, problem-solving frameworks, and data storytelling techniques.
