I Analyzed 7000 Data Analyst Roles on LinkedIn : Here's What You Need to Get them

The Data Scientist job has been described as the sexiest job in the 21st century. But the truth is, it is becoming increasingly difficult to get into Data Analytics or Data Science these days. To understand what is going on, I analyzed 7000 Data analyst Job Postings on LinkedIn. In this video I’m going to be sharing how I did this and my results with you.
Why? I want to answer the following Questions:
1. Most In-demand Skills/Requirements for a Data Analyst now?
2. Tech Stack?
3. Experience: How much demand on Junior, Mid-level and Senior
4. What are the required educational criteria? Msc, Bsc or PhD? Is A degree in a STEM Compulsory?
5. Best Locations for a Job?
6. What is the Average Salary range for a data analyst right now?
Chapters:
0:00 - Intro
1:04 - Data Scrap on LinkedIn
4:15 - Experience Levels
5:20 - Best Locations
8:13 - Tech stack/skills
10:50 - Educational Criteria

Thanks for sharing your experience and insights❤

[@samson_afolabi]

Thanks for watching too!😊

[@cheesysbudgetinglife]

This is honestly a real cool project that you’ve done, you could literally put this in your portfolio as a little achievement/project that you’ve done, and it helped you find a job

[@samson_afolabi]

Thank you 😊

[@Zuranthus]

it's very likely that the skills data is skewed because it read every instance of the letter "r"

[@samson_afolabi]

Yeah. That's possible.

[@limitless003]

Thanks

[@galiapetrova45]

R prevalence is GPT error… i tried to do similar analyses. If you ask GPT to show the code, it basically GUESSING the list of skills first vs actually getting it from the file …

[@samson_afolabi]

Yeah. I guessed as much.

[@raymondatampore9437]

Hello Mr. Afolabi, thanks for such a video. I would appreciate it if you could share your dataset with me for a capstone project. Thanks.

[@samson_afolabi]

pls send me a PM. let's see how we can arrange that.

[@johnvak7390]

I hope there's a job out there for me. I'm seeing many jobs asking for 3+ year of exp and python

[@samson_afolabi]

sure, I believe there are.

[@ViceCoin]

Ive given up on AI data analysts roles, and started cloud mining. Most jobs are for large corporations, req Masters, PhD, and 10 yrs mgmt exp.

[@samson_afolabi]

you mean for data analyst roles? There are as well entry level roles that don't require years of experience.

[@tolulopeemuleomo1373]

Please can I get a link to the code you used in scraping the data

[@samson_afolabi]

Hi Tolulope, A lot of people have asked for this. I'm making a more detailed video to explain and share the script.

[@ayxmiidoherty4088]

Can you make a video on remote tech jobs

[@samson_afolabi]

Noted.

[@galiapetrova45]

Can you share linkedin scraping script ? :-)

[@samson_afolabi]

yeah, I could. send me a dm maybe.

[@ikkrijgnoggeldvanje]

12:50 money money money 😂💸

[@samson_afolabi]

😁😁

[@comptegoogle511]

Everything is going to Up work.

[@samson_afolabi]

Everything? No. I don't think so.
