It allows the user to upload an incredible amount of data and create a wide variety of charts and other visualizations. For now, I am watching a lot of tutorial videos to learn how to use the program.

The atmosphere here at Cary is quite relaxed; everyone is very nice in there is plenty of cooperation, with some friendly competition sprinkled in. We all dress buisness casual, but it's fine to wear the occasional t-shirt on Fridays. Despite the relaxed atmosphere, everyone works very hard to complete all of their daily tasks.

I learned so many things in the ten weeks I was at Cary, both technical and soft skills. I would never have learned how to use programs like SAS VA had I worked somewhere else. The interpersonal skills that I learned were what I felt were the most valuable thing I took from this experience. The data stories group project was an entirely different animal than the group projects in school. Going...
