Experts Speak: Recruitment in Analytics
Ganesh S, CEO at Dun & Bradstreet Technology and Data Services We recruit people from various streams like economics, mathematics, statistics, operations research, computer science etc. While recruiting, I look for deduction ability, logical thinking, and communication skills apart from subject knowledge. Our selection procedure involves multiple stages to assess core skills, practical experience and potential to grow.
