Why am I interested in the analytics role?

I recently participated in Accenture’s Data Analytics & Visualization job simulation on the Forage platform, and it was incredibly useful to understand what it might be like to participate in a typical project team at Accenture, and to use Excel and data analytics and visualization skills in a realistic context.  Through this program I realized that I really enjoy cleaning, modelling and analyzing client data, creating slides to communicate findings and presenting insights back to the client. I would love to apply what I've learned in a diverse project team at a company like Accenture.

Conclusion:

Participating in Accenture's Data Analytics & Visualization job simulation has solidified my interest and enthusiasm for pursuing a career in data analytics. The hands-on experience with real-world datasets and the process of deriving actionable insights were both challenging and rewarding. I am excited about the prospect of contributing to and growing within a dynamic project team at a leading company like Accenture.
