WHAT DO DATA ANALYSTS DO?
The world of data analysts includes a whole range of specializations. Here are a few of them.
DATA
ANALYST
Data Analysts work with technical resources to identify a stakeholder’s best approach using the right databases and tools. Working to make sense of large, unsorted amounts of data, analysts establish a workflow while working with the client to automate their processes.
BUSINESS ANALYST
Business Analysts apply their knowledge of designing, developing, and testing software to evaluate an organization’s business and IT systems. They make recommendations to reduce inefficiencies and costs, and identify ways to streamline the business’ structure.
MARKETING ANALYST
Marketing Analysts gather, clean, and sort data to provide marketing insights to a company. They review marketing campaign results, use tools to understand current consumer trends, and research competitors to help the company improve their marketing efforts.
