Strong presentation skills are extremely valuable for any data analyst. Employers are looking for candidates who not only possess brilliant analytical skills, but also have the confidence and eloquence to present their results to different audiences, including upper-level management and executives, and non-technical coworkers. So, when talking about the audiences you’ve presented to, make sure you mention the following:
- Size of the audience;
- Whether it included executives;
- Departments and background of the audience;
- Whether the presentation was in person or remote, as the latter can be very challenging.
Example
“In my role as a Data Analyst, I have presented to various audiences made up of coworkers and clients with differing backgrounds. I’ve given presentation to both small and larger groups. I believe the largest so far has been around 30 people, mostly colleagues from non-technical departments. All of these presentations were conducted in person, except for 1 which was remote via video conference call with senior management.”
