Sample answer
“In my internship at Accenture, I worked on a project to develop a sales dashboard using Power BI. I gathered requirements from stakeholders, designed the data model, and implemented ETL processes using SQL. One challenge was integrating data from multiple sources, but I overcame this by creating a unified data warehouse. The final dashboard helped the sales team identify trends and boosted their performance by 25%.”
