FROM THE EXAMPLE TO YOUR OWN WORDS

What to write. Where to begin.

A focused summary

Show the question, the data work, and the output. Describe quality checks and how stakeholders used your explanation.

  • Clean data and check it for consistency before analysis.
  • Build reports and dashboards around agreed business questions.
  • Explain findings and limitations to non-technical colleagues.

Writing ideas, not claims about you. Use only the tasks you actually did and adjust the wording.

Relevant skills
