The data-visualization explores who tends to take up unpaid data visualization work to build their portfolio. The initial motivation was to look at potential entry barriers into the data-visualization field by comparing younger professionals and their current data visualization roles with those who are older. Among those with up to 1 year of experience, more tend to be hobbyists. For the rest of the group, people who take up unpaid projects vary in the range of data-viz roles they identify with. The graphic shows counts of respondents in each age group who work on uncompensated data-viz projects to build their portfolios, with identifier markers to reflect their current involvement in data-viz.
