The data analytics field in 2025 is experiencing unprecedented growth, driven by the explosion of data across industries and the increasing reliance on data-driven decision-making. This surge is reflected in both global and Indian markets, with the US Bureau of Labor Statistics projecting a 23% increase in data analyst jobs by 2032 and the Indian analytics sector expected to reach $118.7 billion by 2026.
Unmatched Demand: Data analysts are needed in virtually every sector—healthcare, finance, retail, technology, and marketing—making the profession highly flexible and recession-resistant.
Salary Growth: Entry-level salaries have jumped to $90,000 in the US, with experienced professionals earning an average of $111,000. In India, average salaries hover around ₹6.6 lakh, with an estimated 97,000 positions unfilled annually.
Career Security: The integration of AI and automation is enhancing, not replacing, the analyst’s role. 70% of analysts report that AI automation increases their effectiveness, and 87% feel more strategically valuable than ever before.
Employers are seeking candidates with a robust and versatile skill set:
Excel: Still the backbone of data analysis, Excel proficiency is required in over 40% of job postings for data analysts.
VBA: Automation of repetitive tasks and advanced data manipulation are increasingly important; VBA skills are highly valued in corporate environments.
SQL: Essential for querying and managing large datasets, SQL remains a core requirement.
MS Access: Useful for managing relational databases and integrating with other Microsoft tools.
Power BI & Tableau: Data visualization skills are critical—Power BI and Tableau are the most in-demand visualization platforms, cited in 25–28% of job postings.
Alteryx: Advanced automation and ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) skills with Alteryx are increasingly sought after, especially for handling complex workflows.
R Programming: While not always mandatory, R is valuable for statistical analysis and predictive modeling, giving candidates a competitive edge.
Python: Often paired with R or Alteryx for advanced analytics and automation, Python is becoming a standard in many analytics roles.
