I call the keywords, language, and attitude of analysts toward Excel…

Page 4: VLOOKUP Culture: Lingo for Aspiring Analysts

VLOOKUP culture.

VLOOKUP Culture is how good analysts think about and use data, specifically within Excel.

Page 6: VLOOKUP Culture: Lingo for Aspiring Analysts

Learn the language and become a better, more sought-after analyst.

The language may change a bit depending on your audience.

With the recruiter, it’s all about keywords.

search engines to find the best resume.

Emphasize efficiency with coworkers.

Your coworkers

are on a tight

schedule.
