Data Analyst Jobs Overview
Business decisions made on a whim can be risky, and in many cases, disastrous. Instead of guessing or using intuition, company executives and CEOs rely on accurate data compiled by data analysts to make the best possible strategic decisions. Data analysts (also called operations research analysts) usually work with financial data, trends, patterns, and demographics to help companies make informed choices about how to operate their businesses. Data analyst jobs are open to job seekers with a college degree, mathematics skills, and a knowledge of databases.
As a data analyst, you'll play a vital role in helping businesses solve problems with revenue, staffing, marketing, and security. Some day-to-day tasks you may perform include analyzing data, identifying risks, determining the root causes of problems, and consulting with company leadership. You may work for a corporation, small business, financial institution, government agency, or healthcare facility. Best of all, there are endless job opportunities in data analysis. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 25% increase in new data analyst jobs in the U.S. within the next decade.
