There are many articles that focus on the technical side of things (ie. SQL, Python, Stats) but I find communication, collaboration, and being able to get to the root of a business problem equally (if not more) important and often times prioritized to a lesser extent by candidates. It's a great area to stand out and one I've utilized recently during job searches to get offers.
Well written Martin. Your perspective and notes on the topic a breath of fresh air. Appreciate you sharing!
