Of the industries you have worked in, from a data perspective, which industry is most similar to the one in which Morningstar competes?

"There are a few similarities between the financial services and healthcare industries, specifically related to data and the work of a data analyst. One of the most important is the security of customer or patient data. Both industries work with highly personal and sensitive data that must be kept secure at all times. Because of this, access to data may be more restricted, and analyses may require more time to complete as you navigate the security. To be successful as a data analyst in these industries, you will need to be not only organized but able to present a clear case for the data your analyses require."
