THEN now I am working as a data analyst for another company. I am checking your videos and learning a lot. I would like to know one thing. I am working in the people & culture department they use only excel and powerbi which given a role called data analyst. They don't even use SQL, so can you tell without using SQL, is this a data analyst position.? guys just help me and give a response. Thanks
