QUESTION 23 OF 34

Share an effective way of analyzing a large amount of data?

The Analytical Chemist position involves a great deal of data. The interviewer is looking for you to talk about how you handle working with a large amount of data without missing anything. This position will require you to work with data from multiple scientists within the lab as well as research data, all at once. Talk about how you go about analyzing a significant amount of data.

"Usually when we are working on a large project that results in a significant amount of data, I break the data down into pieces that can be analyzed together. For example, if we are testing the effectiveness of a medication based on the amount of time that it has been absorbed, I will pull together the results from the one-hour mark, then the results for the two-hour mark, and so on. I will analyze each piece of that data and then compare it as a whole."
