Fintech data analysts need to be fully cognizant of how important it is that their work be error-free. When it comes to the data you're analyzing, it needs to be validated and cleansed so the insights you pull from it are accurate. When you collect data manually, it needs to be entered into the system correctly to prevent problems down the line. Tell the interviewer how you ensure that the work you do is as mistake-free as possible.
"By nature, I'm extremely detail-oriented so right off the bat I doublecheck nearly everything I do. Obviously, I know that I have to keep moving and can't spend a ton of time doing this, but it's something that I do automatically. If I enter data into the company's internal system manually, I skim my entries over before I submit them. And when it comes to validating and cleansing the data I'm working with, I never, ever take that lightly. I always put the full effort in because I know that without good data I can't end up with good results. Everything hinges on the data being clean and high-quality; I understand this and always take the time to make sure the data has been thoroughly validated and cleansed before I move on to the next stage in the process."
