FAQ — Data Analyst resumes

Should a data analyst resume include code samples?

Link to a GitHub or portfolio; don't paste code blocks into the resume itself. ATS systems mangle code formatting.

How technical should the language be?

Match the job. If applying to a tech company, name tools (dbt, Snowflake). For a business-analyst role, lead with business outcomes and downplay tooling.

Do I need a master's degree?

No. A bachelor's plus demonstrated work is enough at most companies. A master's helps with quant-heavy roles but isn't required.
