Data Analyst resume example
A data analyst resume must show the question, the method and the business result. This example names the tools and puts a money or time figure on each finding.
Template: Tech
What to include
- Name your tools precisely: SQL, Python, Excel, Power BI or Tableau.
- Describe the decision your analysis changed and what it was worth.
- Mention the size of the data you worked with, in rows or sources.
Why this resume works
- Almost every bullet contains a number, so the reader can see the size of the result.
- Bullets start with an action verb, not with “responsible for”.
- It fits on one page, which is what most recruiters prefer.
- Standard headings and real text mean applicant tracking systems read it correctly.
