Data Analyst jobs
A data analyst is close to a data scientist but is different in reality. A data analyst is someone who processes data (data) into information within a company or institution. There is a substantial difference between data and information. We are talking about data when it concerns a large stream of data that cannot yet be interpreted or understood by people. For this, this data must first be processed into information. Data is only seen as information if there is news value or meaning for the recipient.
