Nice To Haves

Programming Languages: Proficiency in programming languages such as Python and R is crucial for data manipulation, analysis, and implementing algorithms. Python is favored for its simplicity and extensive libraries (like NumPy and pandas), while R is preferred for statistical analysis and data visualization.
Statistical Analysis: A strong foundation in statistics and probability is necessary for analyzing data accurately and making informed decisions. Understanding concepts like regression analysis, hypothesis testing, and statistical distributions is essential.
Machine Learning: Knowledge of machine learning algorithms and frameworks (such as TensorFlow and Scikit-Learn) is vital for building predictive models and automating decision-making processes.
Data Wrangling: The ability to clean and organize complex datasets is critical. Data wrangling involves transforming raw data into a usable format, which is often time-consuming but necessary for effective analysis.
Database Management: Familiarity with SQL and database management systems (like PostgreSQL and MongoDB) is essential for extracting and manipulating data stored in relational databases.
Data Visualization: Skills in data visualization tools (such as Tableau and Matplotlib) help communicate findings effectively. Creating charts, graphs, and dashboards is crucial for making data understandable to stakeholders.
