Hello Luke. Please where did the first guy get his dataset from ? The project on top skills for common roles in data analytics ?

[@andrewskusi6980]

Got my first Data Analyst job this month that I’ll be starting Monday. I landed this position with no projects and no experience at all, just bachelors degree in Health Informatics and google data analytics certificate and doing pretty well on the interview. 🤷🏾‍♂️💯 best of luck to everyone

Congrats! How did the job posting look like? What were some questions you got during the interview?

[@ayubben2919]

congrats!!!

[@andrewskusi6980]

@@Aby-zy4ku they were looking for someone with 1-2 years of experience. It’s a hospital so I guess my background in Health Informatics impressed them too. They didn’t ask of any projects or test me at the interview. The questions they asked were mostly behavioral. Some few questions about the data analysis tools I’ve used in the past and so on.

@LukeBarousse - Please consider doing a video on practical ‘step-by-step’ guidance on how to present your findings as a data professional. For example, for every presentation I must lead, I ask myself these questions, I am sure not to overlook these steps, I make sure I know XYZ about the data, etc. I struggle with preparing for meetings with C-Suite. I always wonder, “What, exactly, should I say to them?”. Real world examples are always helpful. Thank you so much for your work.

This is exactly what I was planning to do. Selected few of the unique problems for my project which everyone is seeing on the news but very less think of solving it. I already had a project similar to the avocado project in collaboration with my 2other classmates where we had the ML, email verification, web session session allotment, a beautiful frontend defining the details in the simplest way, but I am looking so something on my own. And I also learned something which might be a good idea which is "if you are being lazy in learning start teaching that to others" in that way I will research on that and will be able to master it. Let's see what's the future holds for me. But I am confident that I am gonna do good in future 😊. Have plans to open a you tube channel.

Long term listener first time caller. I think what's lacking on this channel & others similar is the narrowed focus on SQL & a BI tool. That may be enough for a Business Analyst job, but you're going to be expected to know a lot more for a Data Analyst position, especially at a tech company or you will suffer from imposter syndrome.

[@rushilkeshav4977]

Relating to the Avacado project, all of this can be done in Excel, from data cleaning to the reports without having to type a single code. What makes SQL so special to land a data analyst job? I feel like I'm missing something, but none of the projects mentioned here are hard to do within Excel itself. I know Excel can lag the bigger the file gets, so I can then understand why SQL Table would work better. But everywhere I look people are cleaning data on Excel and storing it as tables on SQL. There's a few queries to pull data, however it's faster to get the solutions to these queries on Excel through the formulas.

[@LukeBarousse]

Not sure if you checked it out, but I have a video on How I use SQL; think it'll answer the difference on why this tool is important

[@rushilkeshav4977]

@@LukeBarousse Thanks, had a look at the video. It gives a lot of insight as to why SQL is relevant. Seems like Excel is good if you have smaller sets of data and if there is a lot of data across multiple sources then SQL is best.

Luke 4 months ago i took your suggestion about taking the coursera Data Analytic course, i'm done all i need is to pick a dataset as my Capstone project. any suggestions for a Relevant Dataset that would shine on my resume (like to think i'm an Orange Belt ) ? ill appreciate from the heart .

I’d pick a dataset unique to you. Doesn’t have to be big or fancy. Something you have an interest in so this emotion will be conveyed to your interviewer
