Great review! I started this course just under a month ago applying 1-3 hours a day and it’s great for beginners. It doesn’t cover excel outside of the readings which is kind of sad, so I often need to take extra time memorizing the excel patterns along with Google sheets. Modules 4 and 5 are also a tad repetitive if you actually do the readings and a little of the outside practice they give. In 2-3 days I’ll be at module 6, since you said it was the best (tableu and R are a nice change of pace and later I hope to learn powerquery and power pivot) I very much look forward to it.

Some still complain after completion because they assume a degree or certificate supposed 2 get them a job which is a false motive & expectation.

Yes. How i see it is, the google certificate should be used to supplement your degree or whatever pre-existing skills you had before earning the certificate. So as an entry level, you want to have more than one subject area of knowledge so as to increase your chances of securing a job. This means to word your resume to tell a narrative that sounds credible and believable, something along the lines of "in addition to my pre-existing skills and knowledge i also have proficiency in data analysis where i have done xyz..., within x-time period, see below link to my portfolio".

Great video - thank you!

[@cheekiereynolds]

I know this video is old, but I really enjoyed watching this. I have been working with data for some time now, but I want to learn more and I feel like I don't really have the knowledge to move on. I am very much interested in learning more about data analysis, and I hope I can complete and become certified in 6 months. Thank you so much!

Glad it was helpful!

[@waleakindele5806]

Excellent video Wale! I might end up taking this course one day. Data analytics will be very useful for Mechanical Engineer when designing and working on process improvement projects

[@walegbads]

absolutely

[@jodaf1n_67]

I really love your accent :D great video! I'm finishing my business analytics masters and wonder if this could add value to my resume

[@walegbads]

Absolutely!

[@hassansyed6087]

I have a working understanding of HTML, CSS, and JS. Am I able to take this course and benefit from it? Or do i need to go further in the programming ladder and take ReactJS ?

[@Misango_bon]

I finished this course, Google did an amazing job.

[@universalblak72]

After watching this video, I feel confident in taking this course once I complete CoursEra's IT Technology course. Sees what happens.

[@walegbads]

Go for it!

[@giovil]

you finished it in 3 weeks? wow!

[@kone_magency]

Thank you for your recommendation and I will enrol on the course because I am going to be applying for data analyst level 4 apprenticeship in the UK and need some ground knowledge about it.

[@walegbads]

Great 👍

[@ashwinponnappan9721]

You are welcome!

[@walegbads]

Great 👍

[@karliafrancesco9432]

I only have a high school diploma, been working in construction for the passed 5 years. So no experience at all, been in and out of university but didnt graduate. Would I be able to get a entry level job even after this course even if i have no IT background? No one seems to ask this question.

[@Probot94]

This was great!! If possible, could you do another video on other certificates that you would suggest someone get along side this one?

[@allbyhisgrace8925]

Web development,programming I was thinking I start with this then learn javascript or python .my friend in America did data analytics and now doing programming.she has been changing jobs as she get scouted and getting better income ,she is in texas.

Thanks for subbing!

Thanks I'm going for it. I'm looking for a career change

[@ifeanyichi649]

Thank you Wale... I completed mine last week.... Thanks once again for reminding me what the course was like...😊😊

[@walegbads]

Awesome!

[@shahanahmed952]

Congratulations! How long did it take you to complete it?

[@ifeanyichi649]

@@shahanahmed952 unlike, Wale, I never had any previous data analysis experience prior to the time I started the course. So, the pace at which I moved, wasn't like that of Wale. I went through every module; paying attention to details was of great importance to me. It took more than a month for me to complete mine, approximately, 5-6 consistent weeks.... Working on my case study took longer time due some factors (personal) that I couldn't avert. I hope I was able to answer your question?

[@ifeanyichi649]

@@walegbads I look forward to doing great things with you Sir. Cheers...

[@shahanahmed952]

@@ifeanyichi649 You did a tremendous Job answering bro, I appreciate the time you took to reply. Anyways, since you got the certificate how's the opportunity to find a relevant Job looking?

[@theoreticalphysics3644]

I am seven months out of a comp physics degree still without a relevant job. Just completed the first course though, I definitely already have the hard skills besides tableau and r (I'm used to python and have already used pandas before to automate stuff at my data entry job) but I think it's really think it's just the industry I'm completely unfamiliar with and an empty resume. I see so far this as something that might give me some actual direction which I've been lacking for so many years. Hopefully, this can get on a path to data science with my academic computational background.
