How to write a data analyst resume

  1. Start bullets with the decision or result, then the tool: "Saved $1.2M by identifying… using SQL".
  2. List the size of the data you handle (rows, tables, sources) — it signals seniority.
  3. Include one or two certifications (Google Data Analytics, Microsoft PL-300) if you are early in your career.
