How would you rate your writing skills? How do you use this form of communication as a data analyst?

"I have a high level of confidence in my writing skills. As a data analyst, I have had many opportunities to strengthen these skills. Whether through email communications with team members or more formal analytical summaries, I find I can get my point across clearly and concisely. I continuously look for ways to exercise and strengthen my writing skills."

If you have not had many opportunities to use or strengthen your writing skills, state the extra measures you are willing to take to change that, whether through training or by proactively seeking opportunities. If you already have strong writing skills, offer to provide the Morningstar interviewer with an example of this using a document you created in one of your previous roles. Make sure to purge any proprietary information before sending this to the interviewer.
