Hiring managers look for data analysts with strong presentation skills who can present analyses and answer questions clearly and confidently. In many cases, hiring managers look for candidates who can present their findings to people with different backgrounds. Experience communicating with both technical and non-technical audiences is a highly valued skill.

"As a data analyst, I have presented to a wide variety of audiences made up of people with differing backgrounds. The groups ranged in size from one person to 25 people, with the larger ones composed of co-workers from different departments in the company. Most of these presentations were in person, but I have presented a few analyses remotely via video conferencing to smaller audiences. In addition, about one-third of my presentations have had audiences made up of senior managers."

It would be ideal if you had experience presenting to an executive-level audience, but this is not always necessary. When describing your audiences, include approximate size, whether it included executives, and possibly what departments within the company were present. With the rise of remote work, some hiring managers will expect you to discuss presenting analyses via phone or video conference calls since these types of presentations can present unique challenges.
