This resumes and projects have helped me get my first tech interviews. I am having my first technical interview tomorrow for a product analyst role so I was going through the playlist again to prepare. I feel like I will fail terribly and embarrass myself but it will be a great learning opportunity. Thank you so much Alex
The most unselfish person I've ever seen when it comes to giving information on how to break into the data world is you. This came at the time when I needed it the most. Thank you so much, Alex.
Thank you for a great video Alex! I remember going through every one of your videos when trying to get into the field last year, and watching these videos now as a data analyst just hits different. So grateful!
FANTASTIC video! All your content on portfolio projects, building a website for portfolio projects, LinkedIn tips, and resume advice is SO helpful/valuable and makes you stand out as the BEST resource for people trying to become a data analyst. I cannot THANK YOU enough for all of your energy, time, and effort putting these videos together. I just completed your bootcamp series and wanted to say, you are a wonderful person and AMAZING teacher/instructor. I've taken over 220+ college credits over the years getting a bachelors, masters, and phd. You are by far the ABSOLUTE BEST instructor I've ever had. Period. As always, Alex THANK YOU!!! Can't wait to start your courses on the Analyst Builder next!
currently preparing for a final interview for a MI Analyst role and i must have watched about 30 of your videos today. They're in a league of their own. Thank you
Sometimes i feel whenever i don't know what next to do, God sends you to make a quality video to remove my fears. I tried creating a data analyst CV today and felt so lost. Boom i received a notification from you that you've uploaded this.. Thank you for your services
wondering why I was not even passing to the next round in a bloody internship. I was not including my projects in my resume. great content man. legend!
Alex, you are God-sent! I am sincerely thankful for all the time and effort you put into helping the rest of us! The resources you provide, and how approachable/easy-to-follow your teaching is makes this journey of transitioning into data much less daunting! You are a great guy 💚 Thank you for doing what you do!
Once again you've outdone yourself, Alex!! I always look forward to your content. This was extremely helpful! I am currently working on improving my resume, so this video was perfectly timed. I'll be sure to implement all of these tips and tricks. Thank you!!
I was thinking about how to create a good resume for data analyst role, and here is the video. I feel like I manifested it 😅. Thanks for the video Alex
Cool and helpful video. I'm glad you said to add the Tableau Desktop certification on the resume if the job uses Tableau. I was beginning to think if my cert was worth mentioning.
Thank you so much Alex! Honestly, words can't quantify how grateful I am to you for sharing these important and valuable insights and tips and how you have been helping us to navigate through the data world Thank you so much once again for simply being the best
Really very very useful information to the young skilled and educated youth, but don't have a way to present their skills, I'm among those thia helped me very well i can't say in words how i appreciated this 17min video really. Hope you all the best in live
Thank you for sharing all of this valuable information. Your insights have been incredibly helpful and have illuminated my path forward. I truly appreciate it!
Alex! so good to know about your journey. your videos are so helpful and giving new thought process. You are doing commendable job. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences
Thanks Alex! Appreciate the logically concise layout of the example resume. Will be using this info very soon. As always, thanks for the outstanding content you post here in RUclips. Cheers!😎
Thank you so much for you videos. The portfolio website one & this one were so great and helpful. I need to finish more to complete your boot camp but your videos, in my opinion, are a prefect complement to the Google Data Analytics Certificate course on Coursera that I took. Thanks again for your content.
Thank you for the info. Now I understand the use of plain resumes. Once, I saw Luke's and I did not understand why it was just text will bullet points without any shapes or figures in it.
Thanks a lot for your help, Alex. I'm a data analyst myself but couldn't teach my husband who wants to learn SQL. I came across your videos and that is helping him learn SQL. Thank you so much, and God bless you 🙌
Thank you so much for the template, breakdown, and insights, Alex! I've been trying to land a data analyst job for a while now and hope changing up my resume (again) would yield good results :) Your videos have been a great help!
Thank you for this data analyst Bootcamp, really learnt a lot. Can we include the guided projects done in this bootcamp in the projects section of the resume? pending when personal projects are completed PLEASE ANSWER
I really appreciate your videos , they give me hope. I'm trying to become a data analyst without spending any money. I'm unemployed at the moment. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and knowledge.
Thank you Alex for a great video and suggestions. I find really interesting using chat gbt to improve projects, skills descriptions. Looking forward to watch your tutorial on this tool.
It happens, don't get discouraged. There are many examples where people literally got a job offer after giving dozens of interview. Competition is tough, but you are tougher. Remember that.
@@Mr.Potato23 if I could like your comment more than once I would. Your kind words really helped me. Sometimes I get so discouraged that even getting up from bed gets hard.
@@fabscocoa3452 I feel like you're going through some tough time. Just don't give up, you already started your journey, you already chasing your dream, keep chasing it. you're already in pain and suffering, so get something out of it. Best wishes, keep giving interviews doesn't matter how many times you get rejected, keep applying and keep giving interviews, sooner or later you'll get selected. JUST DON'T GIVE UP !!!
If you're not getting many interviews I typically ask individuals to look at their resume - is it something you would hire yourself with? If yes, are you applying in the right spots? Are you working with a recruiter? What location are you applying? There's so many factors it could be, but try to really identify it and see how you can work through it
yo yo Alex, big fan here, quick question. I have 6+ years of experience as a data analyst and am currently working at a Fortune 500 company in the US as a Data Analyst III and I'm the Reporting and Analytics People Leader. After 6 years with this company, I decided to move on, so my CV is not updated :) but my question for you is: - with someone with experience, do I still have to put Skills and Projects on top before Job experience? - if the answer is YES to the above question, do projects should be my own projects, or projects at work will suffice? - Lastly, with someone with experience in the field, do I even need projects portfolio? thanks for what you do!
Great content! One additional question, I have experience with the low-code platform IBM Cognos. Would that be considered another variation of SQL? Or would we consider that a separate platform?
Good content as always Alex appreciated. One question: you mentioned putting a link for the projects you have done to prove and maybe do a showcase about it. But what if my projects are done in a company. I can't just link those dashboards or python codes since data privacy would be an issue.
The project section would be soooo big , because I worked on too many medium to big ones that are all equally important and operates with a different technology
Thanks for this! Bolded key words, key word optimization, and using active verbs to lead off each bullet point will, like you said, help a resume get through those automated first rounds of resume selection at potential places of work. Is there a way you could re-upload with "Assistant" , under Work Experience, spelled correctly? I imagine most viewers will disregard your advice and just copy and paste it, assuming it is perfect, and an employer will immediately notice this misspelling. Thanks, also, for the advice about how non-tech workers, like teachers, can produce a tech-adjacent resume.
Almost done with your bootcamp and i thank you so much for making this much easier than just randomly searching and learning this things online. I'm wondering if i can really land a data analyst job with no relevant data analyst experience. Also im not in US, is it possible to get a job in US and work remotely?
greatly helpful video Alex, I have just switched to the DA career from finance. These tips have greatly helped me. Now seeking new opportunities. I want to know if a two-page resume is offensive? Based on your template can I go for two pages or just stick to one as it is mostly loved by hiring managers?
This video is very helpful! I would really like to have the free templates but the links take me to a screen on your site with a large white box, devoid of text or anything else. Can you help. please? Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for the great videos Alex!! I have a question Is it mandatory to add timelines for the projects? will it be fine if we add projects timeline within a month or 2 months so..?
This resumes and projects have helped me get my first tech interviews. I am having my first technical interview tomorrow for a product analyst role so I was going through the playlist again to prepare. I feel like I will fail terribly and embarrass myself but it will be a great learning opportunity. Thank you so much Alex
Good luck!!
How’d it go

that will count under your previous experience
Thank you 🙏
First one to watch
Congratulations

Thanks for video!! The table where the skills section is written pass the ATS well?
Great video Alex, do you think the Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate is worth putting on a resume?
Almost done with your bootcamp and i thank you so much for making this much easier than just randomly searching and learning this things online. I'm wondering if i can really land a data analyst job with no relevant data analyst experience. Also im not in US, is it possible to get a job in US and work remotely?
I hope you’ve finally gotten the job

For new grads, having your GPA does help.
Not in the US, but it's possible in other countries that it's more normal. In the US I don't recommend having it on your resume.
Thank you so much for the great videos Alex!!
I have a question
Is it mandatory to add timelines for the projects? will it be fine if we add projects timeline within a month or 2 months so..?
