So useful and and great info , all the best Josh

Thanks Josh! Great info

Interesting that you picked out 2 certs I'd never heard of until now. Most of the advice I've seen online to date are for vendor based certs

Thanks a lot, I can learn many things from you. :D

Informative, thank

Your sound so easy to listen for a foreigner like me, so hope you can keep it on the next vid

Hi, I am curious about which learning you recommend to get the "Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate" or code academy "Business Intelligence Data Analyst".

This sir is very helpful. Thank you. I am currently going into my 3rd year of a CS degree and have thought about doing a dual bachelors in Data Analytics, however, I'd be curious to explore the certifications potentially in its place. Which of the certifications would you recommend the most?

Great how i start

How to I get job entry level as one I’m in marketing major transferring to another college in business analytics rn I’m watching videos data analytics course I try search for internships nothing found I need help

Question: I’ve started to look into the possibility of moving to Dubai. Could you do a video with the typical salariés of Data analysts in Dubai? Would like to understand if the pay is better than here in London

Dubai can be better salary. It is tax free and compared to the UK generally higher (if you work for a large company or a company that is from outside Dubai but has an office in dubai). But with high pay can also come high expenses. School is private and can be very expensive. Renting an apartment of villa can also be very expensive. Most people from the UK earn the best before kids or after kids have left home. But on the flip side, maybe you're not to sort to want to save money and would like to live in a fancy apartment in a good part of town ans spend the weekends chilling in expensive hotel pools and beaches. But if your goal is saving, then if you have kids, you're not going to be saving much unless you're in a very senior position

A fully remote position on another country is a unicorn. Sure they exist, but are rare. Most remote positions still hire within their region, so they can at least have occasional meetings in person. When a true 100% remote job does come up, your competition for the job is global, so very difficult to find. It is easier to find freelance work if remote is what you're looking for.

Depends on the freelancing gig you get. Some pay for a contractual amount of time. Usually this pay could be higher because they don't pay benefits. Sometimes you can get hired for a project or piece of work with a 1 time price. In the past I've calculated the hours needed, considered the complexity of the task and charged based on an hourly or day rate. Super simple task, then I charge less. Very complex and specific, then ai charge more as the knowledge is more specialist

Yes, freelancing can not be stable, some see that as a positive, but depends on your situation. I do it a little part time around a main job, but i wouldnt yet rely on it. As far as I know, it isn't yet common practise to fully remote hire from other countries. But there is a community of people called Digital Nomads who do it. You could look into that and they'd have a lot of information about how to get into it, what sort of jobs to pursue etc

No it won't. Whilst chat gpt is good at understanding a plainly worded question then reading data and producing an answer. Like "what are our monthly sales?" Chat gpt would read a data set and answer that. But chat gpt doesn't create data pipelines, interpret data in the context of business, produce influential insights etc. And tbh those questions into data tools have already existed for a few years now. We're safe for now

@joshbrindley5652

Жыл бұрын

That's my assumption, I just don't want to say python is globally the most popular everywhere. Well 99% of know python for data science is knowing the application and methods, not the tool. It doesn't matter in Python the line of code to load a csv is slightly different to the syntax for R. It's about know what you're trying to achieve. So if you know data science in python, applying it to R is a case of spending a couple hours learning the basics of R and loading packages then you're good to go.

It is a great place to start. How long it takes depends what level you're at and how much time you have. I did it mainly to review to see if it would be worth my team taking, and it is good. It is a broad overview, once complete you should then work specifically on projects that align to your goals, such as working in a specific domain like HR or Sales and focus on aspects you like, such as dashboard design, insight generation, product ownership

I'm also currently on that journey. I would recommend setting up a LinkedIn as it's easy to find a ton of remote job postings there and there are a lot of free networking tools that you can use to build a brand. While I have heard that applying for postings can be a large shot in the dark having and developing your LinkedIn can give you a much higher online presence for recruiters to spot you!

Hi Josh. What is the starting salary for a Data Analyst? And what are the salaries compared to programmers, are they significantly less or not? And is it possible to work as a Data Analyst and create your own time during the day or is it strictly from 9am-5pm for example? Greetings

@joshbrindley5652

Жыл бұрын

I'm not super familiar with programming salary, but a data analyst can expect around $80k. But similar to programming there are so many levels and specialised roles. A java coder for a Web company will get less than a coder on specialist systems. In data, different domains and specialisations will get paid more or less. There's also growth potential. Data analyst career track can lead to managing teams, leading analytics for a company which is high paying. It is typically a 9 to 5 but its project based. Meaning, for example a customer service job they have tasks to do between those 9 to 5, a data analyst will typically have projects. If you're on track with those projects, there is time to do other things. I have a normal office job but can find a bit of time each week to focus on things outside the job.
