One of the most important skills a fintech data analyst must master is the database language, SQL (Structured Query Language), as it can handle large datasets that Excel can't. Talk to the interviewer about your experience using SQL. If possible, cite an example or two of when you used it successfully during a project.
"I began to self-teach myself SQL years ago and later followed that up by taking an online SQL course that provided hands-on training. Since then, I've used it countless times during my career. Mastering Excel was important to be able to manipulate data, but SQL is on a whole other level. I have used it to manage and store data, build databases, change database structures, and relate multiple databases to each other. I honestly don't know how I'd do my job without the knowledge I have about SQL, and I look forward to applying that experience and know-how to this position."
