This person will need to communicate their findings, orally and visually.

If you are a very curious person, who enjoys diving deep into the material to find an answer to a yet unknown question. Have a natural desire to go beneath the surface of a problem. Consider yourself a thinker who can ask the right (business) questions. Is confident and self-secure while dealing with situations where there is a lot unknown.
