Hiring guide

What to look for in a Tableau freelancer

A strong Tableau expert designs for the reader, not just to fit every metric on one screen. Look for:

  • Fluency with calculated fields, LOD expressions, and table calculations that stay correct.
  • Good data prep instincts, blending and shaping sources before they ever build a view.
  • A designer's eye, choosing the right chart and cutting the clutter around it.
  • Performance awareness, building workbooks that stay fast on large datasets.
  • Experience with your data: SQL, Excel, or the platforms your numbers come from.

Ask a candidate to critique one of their own old dashboards. People who can name what they would change now are still improving.
