Hi Luka, before you corrected this video someone commented about what they should do when they complete the Google Data Analytics cert. Do you have any recommendations for certificates to look into after the Google cert? I found that question really helpful and was waiting on it, so I hope you can answer it for me! Edit: Love your content by the way! It has been very very helpful and very well made! Do you have any donation links, Patreon, etc?

@@learnwithlukasYes! Though I want to ask about certifications (sorry for saying certificates, my mistake), do you have any recommendations for what to look into after the Google Cert? I’m already using your roadmap and don’t see any recommended certifications. Possibly you could add certifications to your roadmap if necessary? Sorry for the typo.

A good companion to this course is the META Database Engineer...the next step would be getting a certification like the Microsoft Power BI and/or Tableau Data Analyst cert

[@BradleyAidanJohnson]

The coursera course is no preparation for the pl300. It’ll teach you the fundamentals of power bi sure. But coming out of that course you are in no way ready to take the pl300 and pass. Do it anyway for the discount though

hey, I'm currently in my first module. Any tips?

[@xxxxMonkeyGirlxxxx]

Over 300,000 people have completed the Google Data Analytics certificate so using it as your sole indicator that you are competent in Data Analytics may result in a very difficult time finding a job. Employers want a candidate that has experience and proof of their skills. The exams and certificates mentioned in this video will show that you know the knowledge that you write on your resume but you need multiple tools in your belt to stick out. You need at least 5 to 8 quality case studies in your profile and be able to speak of these case studies in details during your interview. You also need to find out what companies you want to work for and determine what applications and tools do they use for Data Analytics. All companies are not equal with what they use and you need to tailor your skills and certifications that align with the companies you want to work for. Same goes for industry. If you want to get into the automotive industry you need to be knowledgeable about that industry.

[@jaysus4057]

Hey, to get a strong CV for an aspiring Data scientist will one of these certification suffice or do i have to collect multiple certificates from the ones mentioned? If yes, could you please tell me the combination of these certificates that I will have to do for a strong CV. Thank You!!!

[@ballinspalding11]

Hi Luke, I have a master's degree in business analytics but we mostly just worked in excel, SPSS and Weka. Been applying to jobs for months and no luck. Do you think certifications mean more than degrees now in the data world? It's a crazy time.

[@squidsweatjuiceoven8583]

I’d you have a masters then I know for a fact I have no chance at this

[@harry8912]

No way. I know the job market is tight but it doesn’t make sense as to what you’re saying. Unless you’re a novice with no experience is the other case:

[@robertwest626]

You need to focus on Python, SQL, and Tableau/PowerBI. With a master's and those tools, you can work anywhere.

[@allin1xavi283]

Is it really that rough?? Do you even have a portfolio, let alone know the useful tools asides from Excel (Python, SQL, PowerBI/Tableau)?

[@ballinspalding11]

​@@harry8912that is the case actually. I got the Master's in order to pivot into an analyst role. I had experience but in non-technical, non-analyst roles. But maybe I'd have better luck if I learnt Python/R, Power BI/Tableau and SQL. However I was applying for entry-level analyst roles and analytics graduate programs and couldn't really land an interview even which I found worrying

[@ErcoleBellucci]

Sad truth is that when you try to become data analyst, there are data scientist or data engineer or ml/ai engineer/research that does this like for free if you go into rabbit hole you'll understand. I started looking for data analyst but is useless because companies want mainly data scientist/data engineer/ml engineer. That's because if they find someone like that and they do "data analytics" they destroy the market

Look at analytical roles with job descriptions that match your skills and look across different industries there are still a lot of openings

They have a lot of different "nano-degrees". It is worth looking into, I took a few of their beginner courses for free, each first course is free but I wouldn't spend my money there. KZbin has plenty of knowledge not to mention, textbooks are great. Sure you won't be certified, but look online for "popular" certs, but make sure they are relevant to your career.

@@Qesili Python is rough! Some personal advice, focus on Excel, SQL and Tableau. If you have the time of course grind Python. But my portfolio consisted of a lot of SQL and tableau.

[@kennymontero8610]

@@allin1xavi283 truthfully, remote DA positions are steadily decreasing as time moves forward. Luckily for me i do work remote, and have never worked in office. I must say that the entry level field is extremely saturated but one thing that i have noticed is everyone wants a remote job. I believe it is better to get your foot in the door and gain experience remote or in office (easier said than done). When i started my search 1 year ago i was not looking for specifically remote jobs, once i was hired i was told the remote policy of the company. To sum everything up, it’s going to be difficult to find a remote data analyst job with 0 experience but it’s ofcourse possible but if you are just limiting yourself to remote positions you are going to make you job search more difficult.

You keep making the case about certificate vs certification, but googling most of these is just another "certificate included" not actual certification...

[@allin1xavi283]

If you have to pass some examination with the possibility of failing and having to retake it either for free for only a certain amount of attempts or pay to take the exam again, they’re more than likely certifications he is referring to. Certificates are merely given as completion with little examination that faces you unlimited tries at the most part.
