Qlik Sense System Administrator Certification (2018) — Question 10

A retailer with 300 locations worldwide needs to analyze its workforce to prepare for its next board meeting. The two most important items to the board members are total compensation and number of employees by city.
Which visualization should a business analyst use to meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Scatter plot
• B. Bar chart
• C. Pivot table
• D. Map

Correct answer: B

Explanation

A bar chart is ideal for comparing total compensation and employee counts across different cities, allowing for clear visual representation of the data. A scatter plot is not suitable as it is used for showing relationships between two variables, while a pivot table, although useful for data analysis, does not provide a visual format appropriate for a presentation. A map may show geographical distribution but does not directly compare total compensation effectively.
