The Data School Reviews

It is not easy as everyone is equal.

The company does numerous projects with charities and government agencies.

In the office, we are a fun bunch with different interests and backgrounds. Possibly the most varied office I've worked in! It’s also a very flat structure - you're open to learning what you want. Just a great open playground for data analysts.

The recruitment process is consistently evaluated to see if the company is adequately representative. We also hold events to target the area we feel we are lacking, for example, we recently held a data and women event in our offices. Yes, by not requiring CV's the company does not discriminate on an applicants background.

After the four months at the Data School, you are sent to a client where you will be an expert in Alteryx or Tableau or both. Your responsibilities will go from building dashboards, Alteryx workflows, teaching etc. Depending on your placements.

People are really approachable so it's easy to find a person with more expertise and that you can have a good relationship with to ask for help and mentoring. Internal communications are very open and everyone is listening even if you just join the company.

In general, we're out at clients, so it's not a big thing. The dress code is reasonably informal.

Skills-based assessment using the tool you will be trained on. Proves dedication and interest level. Why are you interested in analytics. Be yourself, be enthusiastic.

Not enough base salary. However, there is a lot of budget for staff entertaining.

Very reasonable hours. Management does their best to step in if there are unreasonable demands from the client.

We're not doing much here yet.
