Liked the analogy about cooking. If you are not putting the extra time to become the best version of yourself, the field you work in doesn’t really matter. It is really important to choose a career you think you will be able to constantly improve yourself in. Thus, you need to LOVE your field/job.
Nailed it!
This is like , Hey I'm Billionaire, don't become a Billionaire like me , stop watching these kind of videos people, do what you want to do, your life your choice.
Good words
that's your takeaway? sad. this is more like warnings & staying grounded to reality rather than naively believing it's all butterflies & rainbows. don't know what's so bad about sharing cons to a profession 🤨
I swear. Like everytime I look up a GREAT career path it’s always a party pooper. Like Gtfo
There's too many people like this who lack comprehension skills.
@@lugardoactually it’s a lot because if ur positive u don’t need the whys if there’s benefits in reality everything takes work
I think you can use this analogy with any job. You’re always going to have adapt to ambiguity. I just graduated with a. Degree in data analytics and currently looking for my first role. I can say, I don’t mind and enjoy doing about 90% of the things you mentioned. My next step is just having a company hire me so I can show my value
How's the search going? Are they offering compensation that you feel is fair, having a degree vs. people who just do boot camps or self-teach data analytics?
Can I ask which program you took for your undergrad?
Cool, so then this video wasn't for you.
Imo, a job is a job. I understand that people say to find a job you love because you'll have an interest in it but this is real life. Things don't always go the way you want them to go. A job is a job, you're gonna have to work and learn regardless of whether you like doing it or not. You can succeed in any career you could want to as long as you put the work in
No one should work a job they don't love, it's better to be homeless then do something you don't like.
@@emilywendling yeah…no
@@emilywendling I don’t think u realize the hardships the homeless undergo because in no way is that better than just getting a 9/5 and actually living
@@emilywendling privilege is blind to those who have it, so why don't you try and see what being homeless is like
I don’t think so.
All of these reasons are why I want to become an analyst. I've spent a lot of time realizing what I want to do ever since I switched from pre-med to data analytics/science last summer. I have been self-learning and teaching myself all throughout my new college classes too.
Am trying the same, do you think Chatgpt will hurt this career ?
Also switched from pre-med to analytics
So the reasons are:
-Not interested in tech
-Not a self learner
-Don’t have patience
-Not a good at communicating
If you don’t have any interest in tech, you can’t talk to people, you can’t learn on your own, and and you have no patience then my friend you can’t succeed in any line of work. In short, this video was a nothing-burger. An absolute garbage take, which had nothing to do with the job itself.
Yea
good video but misleading title. more like "things to be aware of as a data analyst"
I’m a computer science student entering my senior year. I feel comfortable with data structures and algorithms, however I haven’t taken any statistics courses yet. I’ve taken linear algebra, discrete math and the calc series.
How much statistics courses do you recommend or what type of math is used for this industry? Also, what type of programming concepts are applicable to this job?
Thank you for your time!
There’s actually not to much math involved or statistics unless you’re venturing into data science. For data analytics it’s more so gathering requirements and learning how to transform and load data into a data visualization too using sql!
Justin, a follow up question: I failed at math back in school bro. I use an online percentage calculator and shit 😂 but I have a somewhat developed analytical thinking. Would this job be very hard for me? Or simply as hard as anything new? Its just cos I really fucking suck at math bro
Those who love to cook will go alot farther than those who just read off the recipes every time. Thats deep honestly and well said.
I’ve been deep diving into the coursera google course about data analytics and I’m almost finished with it. With the learning they have had I’ve come to appreciate the self teaching of the sql coding, r, and python and the many ways that you can adjust and manage your database filtering. It’s for me but I see how it doesn’t seem to be for everybody
Hey, have you been able to find a job with it yet? If so how are you liking it? Just starting the course
Thinking about taking the same course, have you had any luck?
All of those things can be developed. This comes across as gate-keepy
This is how i felt when I was trying to learn cyber security. It wasn’t for me and now im studying data analytics. To each is own
Same! I quit studying cyber and became a business analyst.
While working, do you spend a lot of time (AT WORK) on Google and RUclips for SQL or Power BI concepts that you may not remember or know but, need to know for a project? You said you work remote so, I assume the answer is “yes.” Was this an entry level Data Analyst position? Is this your first Data Analyst job, basically?
I was hoping he’d answer this question. I edited the question to emphasize researching concepts “at work” versus “off the clock.”
I think the video is just named incorrectly. I feel you should have named this video, things to consider before becoming a Data Analyst not why you shouldn't become a Data Analyst.
I think you just saved me from sinking a lot of time into something I wouldn't get very far in.
as a indian who already in a stage where i choose streams according to will of others these problems are no big deal. 😂
Hi Justin♥️ your video, I have 2 questions justin I want advise from you actually I don't have good communication skills and don't want to engage with stakeholders and want to work on my own and present the work to Manager, So can I survive for long term in data analyst field without good communication skills and second Justin What type of issues related to coding or and others we can face in data analyst field Can we solve those issues by researching on our own, Please Justin answer to these questions and give me advise on that Thankyou
As a Business Insights Manager of a Fortune 500 company, this is one of the most honest videos I've watched. Thank You
Great video! I tried being a data analyst and quickly I realized that is not for me! I can be better in something else.
Really? What didn’t you like about it? 🤔
interesting to see honesty about this, fill us in when you've found something cool to you
Curious what wasn’t it for you
cause chatGPT gonna replace you in a while
My goal is to be a Data Scientist. I studied Industrial & Systems Engineering and I'm about to make the change by a bootcamp and try first as a Data Analyst to gain experience and practice with the key tools such as Phyton, R, SQL, Tableau, etc.
I'm tremendously shy and introvert. So I should become data engineer or software engineer, instead of becoiming data analyst ?
Wondering about the same thing😂
My problem it's that I don't know what I want to be, I started yesterday to learn programming I'm taking the ossu path to be a computer scientist but I love AI a lot but idk what do I need to be to work with AI data analyst, data scientist or what
Don’t become Data Analyst… if you have zero domain knowledge and zero experience. I successfully finished Data Foundations Bootcamp in Udacity in 2018, got a certificate,…and never got hired (or even responded by recruiters)!😅 Plus I am an Applied Mathematics graduate (immigrated to US from Russia)😳. Go to internships, go do PhD program, go become a Manager and then do data with your leadership team❗️I wish you to be well trusted and easily hired to the job your heart desire!❤
I got into some RUclips algorithm hell that keep suggesting I watch "This is why you don't want to be a data analyst/software engineer" videos. And they all say the same crap, please please please come up with some original content. This is just click baitey nonsense
what's your opinon about a new bigginer to learn about the technical skill ,something like R 、SQL 、 Python?
and this video is really helpful, thanks!
Definitely learn them!
start from statistics first, then master excel/sql/python/data visualization/business intelligence
@@shy4real
Master Excel?
As a guy which work 'only' with Excel/VBA daily for years im decades away of mastering excel.
And 'real programmer' laughs about VBA.
So "master" is definitive the wrong word.
It is more like pareto-principle:
Learn the 20% which are needed for 80% of all tasks.
For a real master you need 100%.
Don't be the millionaire that tells us why you "shouldn't" be try to be rich ... It is just hypocritical ... Lose your money first and then tell us 😉 ...

what will be the future of DA in genration of AI ChatGPT and many more to come
"they're putting in the REPS" this man earns his likes
haha I caught that too, I thought it was funny
great video as usual.. underrated youtube channel
Thank you 🙏
Can you share a little your education background ?
The world doesn’t just revolve around data, Life is so much more than data analytics.
Asking chat how to use these tips in my interviews. With a resume positive tone :p
WhAT ARE SOME RUclips VIDEOS THAT TAUGHT YOU CERTAIN SKILLSET YOU DID NOT KNOW?
Thanks a lot this video really helped👍👍
"Don't be a footballer if you don't enjoy playing football"
Thanks for the video, have a great one!
DON'T WORRY A.I WILL FIX THIS 😁😁😁
Thank you. It's make me rethinking before I start learn become a Data Analyst.
this is great stuff! thank you for sharing
😘
I appreciate your feelings and thinks. Thank you to share these cons.
What programming languages does a data analyst use? sql? Any thing else?
SQL and maybe Python
love your channel
Thank you dark master 🤌
Hello do you recommend any sites to learn data analytics from scratch and practice projects?
Course Careers is $500 ( I'd recommend this once you've gone though an introductory course to ensure you'd like this field -see below).
Career foundry five day introductory course FREE.
Coursera had the good analytics introductory course for FREE.
You can also you tube intro to data analytics videos.
@@Mrs.T305thanks very much!
i was quite hesistant to watch the vid, turns out you just gave me the advice i really needed since i am considering to switch careers
how you gonna compare that to cooking 😅
the compositions on a lot of these shots are exceptional
My laptop not working
I am going to buy new one
Nice tips Justin, tksss!!!
Great direction!
These reasons are actually insane to me as a nurse looking to change careers😂 none of these compare to being verbally abused or peed on
Tf?? Peed on?
@@rushalidesai3398 yep
Hope you're okay
It's probably old people doing it as they don't have much control over their bladder
Hi! I'm doing Art History for my undergraduate (shifted from Computer Science), and I was wondering if you've met someone in your team who had a humanities background and does Data Analytics? The higher maths in CS became completely unnecessary and I am quite confident I can teach myself the technical skills needed for DA/DS.
I do.I have a degree in public relations and work as data analyst
@@northpaul3276 is a degree in business data analytics worth it in bachelor's ?
@@aena5995 depends on where you live i guess. Honestly i don't know anyone with this degree, most have background in statistics/economics/computer science, but plenty of people have completely unrelated degrees. One of the main unattractive feature for analysts is not lack of formal education but lack of business domain knowledge/unwillingless to learn it
@@northpaul3276 yes it's a pretty new program at this uni but this uni is known more for its technology Computer programs but business data analytics seemed interesting because not everyone has it so by the time I graduate it won't be as saturated as everyone is doing CS so I want to learn finance business along with programming too tho so is it worth it or is it better to get a general degree like economics or smthing as everyone says it's better to get something general instead of too specific however this program has Data Science and Artificial intelligence and machine learning related courses too so it's mostly stuff I am really interested in, is it worth it in the long run ? And can specialise in Fintech or Marketing analysis etc in the program but it's a fairly new program so is it worth the risk will employers prefer someone with an econ major even though my uni ranks higher in the rankings ?
@@aena5995 in your place i would go straight to what you want to do in the future, in this case business data analytics as i understand.
u are cute :)
good talk man!
thank you!!! 👍
I have no problem communicating with supervision/team members. But someone told me that data analysts have to give a lot of presentations. Is this accurate? Also, are presentations live or pre-recorded? I'm just trying to get a feel for if this is something I want to pursue. Thanks!
Bro bro you jus made me think I could do this even more 😂
Let’s gooooo
I agree with everything you said. I've been in computer programming for over 17 years and I HATE it for all the reasons you listed. I'm only doing it for the money and I recently acquired my MBA and I'm looking to transition from data to Business Analyst.
Should I give up?
It depends on your situation. I wouldn’t say give up but seriously think about if this is what you want to do! It’s okay to pivot.
Any tips for a college student to get into data analytics, and how to get internships?
Definitely brush up on your skills and network hard if your college offers career networking fairs! That’s how I got mine.
I started a Data analyst bootcamp after learning web dev for 4 months by myself, I gave up because everyone was trying to learn the same and it’s saturated in web dev field and I didn’t have the discipline to study. But now on a bootcamp it feels better, even if I’m not that much into data analyst, with some guide is awesome.
Btw I’m new on this, is data analyst a good work/life balance job? How much do you make as junior? Nice video
DA is saturated as well
Everyone is learning data analytics as well 😅
I kind of hate all into data analyst/tech videos because of their first point. Now I know many did it, but I didn't. I love technology. Even got degrees in it.
Considering the economy right now, anyone going into tech is shooting themselves in the foot lol
