Inspiring and enlightening us as always girl , congratulations to you. Glad I started my path to reinventing myself a year ago after my university, I’m now living healthier, confident, stronger, making 6 figures, having leisure to enjoy family &friends. I feel happier and living my life for myself . This is to encourage someone “you can start anytime to have a reset it’s worth it! I’m striving to continue growing cus it’s a journey 💗

[@gracedaniels6172]

¿Congratulations sis! Thanks for encouraging others with your story, I will love to get tips from you too:)

[@sandramish2229]

Change your mindset, read self-help books, expand knowledge, budget and don't spend on impulse, save, take your finances seriously, eat healthy, exercise your body, meditate; the list goes on... I hope it is useful to you.

[@theresamish1746]

How did you grow to 6 Figure ? I’m honestly trying to work on my personal finance this year.

[@louis-freddieceaser8811]

Congratulations to you Sandra keep it going that's a great accomplishment

[@sandramish2229]

I learnt to be frugal, minimal on spending, saving and paying myself first through Investing, made Plans, growing passive income, Read a lot of books on finance, followed my plan consistently.

[@Teee_777]

In December I decided to break into the tech field. I took a Google Data Analytics course, and enrolled back into college! I'm a CS major and looking at jobs and internships right now. I'm still working on getting better at SQL, Python, and Excel, and taking a Cloud course now. It's a lot but I'm determined. I do wish I could find an entry-level position in data that will teach me SQL on the job. But I'll just network until then. I do have an opportunity for an internship with my local news station in the tech department. We will see!

[@angelfortunee]

Hi girl, how well are you using your LinkedIn? Share what you are learning, create enlightening posts on what you are learning and the kind of opportunities you are looking to get. I promise it'll make this process faster for you

[@cassies.8407]

GIRL! Yes transition!🙌🏾 I’m currently trying to transition into data analytics and I’ve been so overwhelmed with trying to learn python, sql, excel tableau & feeling like I don’t know enough of it to apply for these roles. Also not having projects and a portfolio to prove I know the work. But hearing your story inspires me to just do it. You definitely got lucky with landing six figures for your first role especially w/o having to negotiate. Blessing upon blessings were coming your way, congratulations!🎉❤

[@_justziv]

Thank youu and luck played a huge role in terms of salary!! It definitely is overwhelming trying to learn everything. Hopefully you’ve found a way to break it down and take it one step at a time. In terms of projects, this KZbin account was super helpful in terms of things to learn and projects to do: kzbin.info/aero/PLUaB-1hjhk8H48Pj32z4GZgGWyylqv85f I didn’t do this project myself but I followed along one of his videos when I had to do the tableau challenge for my interview prep. Good luck in your transition. I’m loving data analytics so I hope you land in a role that will be fun for you too 💕

[@enosbundi2124]

Hi Cassie, can you teach me python and excel tableau

[@nyamekosalakuphathwa861]

Hey can we work together I am also interested but haven't started 😢

[@DataAnalystkenya]

@@nyamekosalakuphathwa861 yea we can form a team and work on something cool

[@trivagravia4837]

l advice you pick one from these; python, sql, excel tableau & feeling like, and be good at it..after that the rest will naturally follow..

[@Mhizdammy]

Hi Ziv, congratulations on your role. Your journey is so relatable to mine, except for the fact that I'm switching careers to Data Analytics from being a Marketing professional for over 6 years. I could relate so much to you looking at Linkedin jobs and not applying. I've been really upskilling myself over the last few months. I've learnt Sql, Excel and Tableau. But I'm not yet confident. Knowing that you were able to get a job without taking courses is such an eye opener. I guess I just have to trust myself and believe in my sauce. Great video btw.

[@BryoTheKid]

@Mhizdammy Im actually doing the same. I am a Marketing major at my university but I want to pivot to become a Business/Data Analyst. I am currently taking some free courses on SQL and Tableau to add to my resume.

[@_justziv]

Hello! Thank you! And wow, with 6 years of marketing experience AND sql, tableau and excel knowledge, you just need to start pumping out those applications. I get what you mean with the scrolling, you read the job description and it just sounds so scary 😂 I recommend you check out this insta: @badasscareers. This account and the free webinars she holds helped me so much with confidence. I was able to revamp my resume to showcase the experience I had (I just used the free resources but she has paid boot camps as well. But I think you can learn a lot with the free stuff). For you with 6 years experience you’d have an amazing resume. Good luck, just keep applying and definitely believe in your sauce!!!

[@yogeshraghav3398]

This was more than I needed to know, starting my data science career and this will be an additional edge, got to see your video randomly on my feed!! Thanks from India !!!

Extremely useful. Currently in Junior College and began looking in Financial Analyst positions and I am surprised people don't apply early. The only discouraging part is that Companies "prefer 3-6 years experience" but everything else is actually what you learn in the first 2 years of college !!! :D

Just one word “inspiring”, I had given up on pursuing this path…but this 11:23min video changed all that, life is interesting like that…thank you for that.

Congratulations,I just want to interject,one thing is in regards to the LinkedIn platform. Your correct the objective section should provide key detail as to the field of interest ,however LinkedIn is not a resume alone its also a history profile and timeline in which many employer s can see all of your work history ,capabilities , Languages, licenses and skill set. Its more of a Networking platform based on what you've succeeded in ,within your overall professional career. 😊Stay beautiful🌹💯

Hey, ziv I'm interested in the tech industry but I have no experience or background knowledge. Also, I'm afraid to enter the tech world too. What should I do? I have always wanted to have high salaries beyond my age even though I'm still a uni stud.😪

[@_justziv]

Hi Yoom. I’d start by researching the tech industry to see what I like. Tech industry is so broad it gets overwhelming. Since you know that you want a high paying job, search on KZbin “high paying jobs in tech” and just research to see if any of those interest you and what the path to getting those jobs looks like. Then you can work backwards from there to see what skills you need to pick up. If you can pick up electives at uni that help then do that. Otherwise there are so many free courses on KZbin. And also make sure you are working while you are at uni. Even if it’s at a supermarket or restaurant! Any employment is an opportunity to gain soft skills that you can put on your resume and showcase in interviews. It’s great that you have such high ambitions while still at uni. Just make a game plan and keep working hard. All the best!!
