• You understand that success is in the details. You notice things that others don't. Your critical thinking skills help to inform your decision making.

• You give meaning to data. You enjoy investigating complex problems, and making sense of information. You are confident using data analytics or artificial intelligence tools (including Excel) to identify areas for enhanced testing and in your ability to communicate detailed information in an impactful way.
