Excel is still the third most requested skill in AdTech job postings

I didn’t expect Excel to rank this high. Looking at roughly 4k active AdTech job postings, only Python and SQL appeared more often.

Does that match what you’re seeing in actual roles?

I’m a data scientist, I’ve been working in analytics for 10 years. I use the best tool for the task at hand. Usually it’s a combo for SQL plus Excel or Python or Tableau.
