Resume example

Data Analyst resume example.

Data analyst is often an early-career role, so the strongest resumes lean on concrete tools and specific, small wins rather than years of scope. This example follows an analyst with about two and a half years of experience, with bullets that show SQL fluency and dashboard work translating into a decision someone actually made.

What reviewers look for

  • SQL fluency demonstrated through a specific query or reporting win, not just listed as a skill
  • Dashboard or reporting tools named explicitly (Tableau, Looker, Power BI)
  • A concrete decision or process change that resulted from your analysis, however small
  • Comfort with spreadsheets and basic statistics — still core to many analyst roles, even alongside SQL/BI tools

Keywords to include

Show a decision your analysis drove

Even a small one — "flagged a drop-off point that led to a checkout redesign" is a stronger line than "built reports."

Name your BI tool

Tableau, Looker, and Power BI aren't interchangeable to a hiring manager — say which one you actually used.

Early career? Lean on internships and coursework

A relevant class project or internship analysis is legitimate resume content when full-time experience is still thin.
