What’s the largest data set you’ve worked with?

Many businesses have more data at their disposal than ever before. Hiring managers want to know that you can work with large, complex data sets. Focus your answer on the size and type of data. How many entries and variables did you work with? What types of data were in the set?

The experience you highlight doesn’t have to come from a job. You’ll often have the chance to work with data sets of varying sizes and types as a part of a data analysis course, bootcamp, certificate program, or degree. As you put together a portfolio, you may also complete some independent projects where you find and analyze a data set. All of this is valid material to build your answer.
