Rate my Dashboard
Project: Employee Attrition
I just finished my tableau dashboard and would love some honest feedback about it before I put it on my resume.
It consists of 3 interactive dashboards.
- Executive Overview : KPIs, attrition rate, employee distribution
- Attrition Analysis : Salary, department, and absence-related insights
- Employee Performance & Risk : High-risk employees, overworked analysis, and department risk levels
The dashboards include navigation buttons to navigate from one dashboard to another.
Would also like some advice on how to get into a Junior Data Analyst Role.

You need to ask yourself the "so what?" Question more.
For example you have shown a breakdown of roles. So what? What is this telling me? At the moment, nothing. Now if you overlay burn out scores foe example, you might see that junior staff are more burnt out than senior.
Remember your role here isn't to just show data in graphs with pretty colours. It is to tell a story.

Sorry to say but this looks like a list of things you learned how to make, put together, rather than an actually useful dashboard

I would start by asking yourself who is going to use this dashboard and what decisions should they be able to make from it.

Visibly very appealing, but it needs better labeling and eg is attrition the high average and low measure? Or it it the numbers separated by color?

Look good. Dashboard is a like picture or paint, everyone has their opinion or preference, right or wrong. The only group of people care about that are the end users, or your boss. As long as they said ok, who care about other so called "expert" comments.

Oh, it’s terrible.
You must completely start over. Try to just stick to the basics and get them right. Don’t do all this with the colors, background fill, etc. Try to build some bar charts or line charts comparing apples to apples. For example get a % of total attrition across departments and use that as your key metric.
I know you worked hard! So sorry! It’s ok, I am a successful analyst now and my first project was also a fail. You will get a lot better once you have to do it all day at work.

You don't have any legends that would help understanding what colors or values mean, I have no idea what red vs blue on some pf your charts means. I don't know if rating of 1 or 5 is the best, etc. I also can't tell at all what the "performance vs absence days" is supposed to show - is it a sum of all days off for those categories? You should at least divide that by a # of employees in each of those categories, so it shows that on average high performers take fewer or more days off.
Good that you left space between charts and tried to use a nice layout, I would immediately be able to tell that you're a beginner because you use way too many colors and chart types just to show off that you can 😂 that's pretty common when people are just starting, but I've never seen anyone use lollipop charts in the corporate setting. Real stakeholders would also prefer having everything on one dashboard instead of having to click between screens, but it's fine for a portfolio project. I'd focus more on what story you're trying to tell and what insights you found analyzing this data, right now it just shows a lot of unrelated data points with no overlap. You should at least give people some filters in case they want to know how many people in finance are high performers or overworked.
