  • “Data analyst mentor for a junior analyst working solo”

    I'm looking for a data analyst mentor with a few years of experience for three calls over the next two months. I'm eight months into my first analyst role at a regional healthcare company in Pittsburgh, and I'm the only analyst on my team.

    Most of my work is SQL in Snowflake and dashboards in Tableau. Nobody reviews my queries, I'm not sure my dashboards answer the right questions, and I don't know what good looks like at the one-year mark.
