    📄 ABOUT ME:
    My mission is to help you grow your career, especially in the world of data analysis. Switching careers to become a data analyst from a non-tech background was overwhelming. I made a lot of mistakes and wasted time trying to figure it out. But having been a manager of data analytics and now a senior business intelligence engineer in tech (FAANG), I've learned a lot and I'm excited to use my experiences to help you navigate your career path. I hope this channel gives you the clarity and motivation to get started!

    I'm a junior in college at the moment studying Data Analysis, but unfortunately I have realized my college isn't actually preparing me for this career at all. I graduate next summer and I still don't have any technical skills. I am really grateful for your videos. I am a first-gen college student and I really hope to live a comfortable life without the struggles my parents had. I sincerely thank you for the wonderful information you give to people for free. I am going to work hard to follow a road map like this to reach my goals. Keep up the great work!

      Thank you for sharing your experience. I am literally in the same position right now, first gen student, graduating next year with no experience and feeling like my degree hasn’t prepared me for the workforce. Give yourself some credit for taking the time out to research what to do outside of school and putting in that effort. I wish you the best for your career journey!

      So true, I'm in a similar position rn
      I'm majoring in Business Analytics..and I'm confused as hell
      I got an internship but it was totally a field work ( involves surveying people ). I had to leave it few days ago because of the heavy pressure of achieving targets, and toxic work culture...I want to start all over again, it surely gave me a reality check, and made me doubt If I chose the wrong career or smth

    Thank you ! This is helping me tons. I’ve recently completed the Google DA Certificate but have felt stuck in starting my projects for the portfolio. And just really learning the skills. I had decided to focus on the 3 you mentioned in this video, so that’s my confirmation that I’m on the right track! 💕

      @tinaviju580 4 месяца назад +11

      Is started the Google D A course but it's learning style didn't suit me. It is a person talking and talking. I switched to IBM Data analytics certification and liked it. It is very concise and solid.

    • @xOrchid23x
      @xOrchid23x 4 месяца назад

      @@arefwahb7771hello! I would recommend it as far as you have absolutely no background or experience in tech or data analysis. It introduces what the role is and introduces the main tools you will need for the job but you won’t be an expert at the end. I would go through it and absorb as much as possible but continue to learn outside the course itself. I don’t think it looks bad on your resume, it’s a recognized industry one but won’t get you the job.

    Hi there, thank you so much for that information, I'm on my journey to become a data analyst. Could you recommend a website or a place to have the portfolio? I have seen some video where they have it on wix or other pages, but could you recommend one, thanks!!

    Thank you.. I have a Bachelors degree, but fall short on the technical piece. This is absolutely helpful..

      Same..The technical part is not my strength either but definitely doable!

    Thanks. I have been preparing the statistical data report for 6 years in excel and adding data visualizations which are very helpful. Is that true that power BI can replace data analyst job?

    Another data analyst suggested using canva to create visuals for the analyzed data. Do you recommend this as well?

    I just stumbled on your post, and I’m glad I did. Please how do I move forward from recently completing a Cybersecurity Challenge with concentration on GRC domain, to getting a job but no hands on training. Any help please?
