1. 🚩 Dashboards aren’t supposed to look like Christmas trees 🎄
Have you ever open a dashboard and just sit there like,
“Wait… what am I even looking at?”
Charts everywhere.
Colors shouting at you.
3 minutes in, and still no clue what’s important.

🚩 Yesterday reminded me why I enjoy being in the tech space.
📍 I attended the Amazon Web Services (AWS) London Summit and it was a great one.
Met teams from Postman, GitLab, Datadog, Databricks and a few others.

Biggest interview red flag → faking knowledge.
Wrong answers kill credibility.
Better:
→ “I’m not sure, but here’s how I’d approach it.”
→ “I haven’t used X, but I’ve worked with Y (similar tool).”
Honesty + problem-solving > pretending.

Just starting your data journey? Don’t rush into machine learning or Building Dashboards. Start here:
✅ Learn basic Excel formulas
✅ Understand data types
✅ Practice SQL SELECT queries
✅ Try a simple Python script
Start small. Stay consistent. We’ve got you
🚩 Your CV won’t land you the DATA job unless you do this.
1. Job description:
→ Circle the tools, skills, keywords.
→ If they want Python, SQL, dashboards, don’t hide it on page 2.
🧵Thread
4. Show results, not responsibilities:
→ Wrong: “Responsible for analyzing data.”
→ Right: “Built SQL queries that uncovered churn patterns → 15% retention boost.”

2. 📍 Dashboards aren’t built to impress.
They’re built to guide decisions.
→ More visuals ≠ more value
→ One clear story > ten half-stories
→ If people feel lost, the dashboard failed
3. 📍 Your dashboard isn’t for you.
It’s for the person who needs to act on it.
→ If it looks like a Christmas tree, you built it for yourself.
→If it looks like a compass, you built it for the business.
