Dashboard Week Day 5: All Good Things Must Come to an End

Today marks my final day in training at the Data School. It has been an absolute rollercoaster of an experience. There have been many highs, coupled with many lows. I have met a plethora of lovely people, learnt an insane amount about not just data, but myself, and got the opportunity to work with some incredible clients. I am very grateful for the opportunity and can't wait to see how the next 2 years pan out! We are very blessed as Data School Consultants to learn from such incredible coaches. Both the positive AND negative feedback has helped me grow immensely. Thank you Jenny, Carl, Lorna, Robbin, Andy, and Ruth. Special shoutout to Jenny for being the best coach DS41 could have asked for!

My number one bit of advice for incoming Data School Consultants would be: Get Your Sleep every night! The training period puts your brain into action at all times, on days where I hadn't had adequate rest I found it very difficult to follow along.

On to the dashboard!

Continuing on from yesterday, I am completing my dashboard looking at "Do The Finest Films Receive Their Deserved Returns? And has this changed over time?"

After receiving some advice from both Jenny and Carl, I have made a few amendments to my chart choices and analysis. Mainly, jittering my bar charts such that I can represent every unique film within the dataset with a point.

The end result can be seen below!
