As a data analyst something else I recommend learning is the context behind the data you’ll be analyzing. For example, if you’re applying to be one at a manufacturing facility, understand the manufacturing process (at least to some degree). If you’re applying at the corporate office of some retail chain or medical office, understand how those companies generally work etc etc…The technical skills are certainly important, but knowing the actual business pays in dividends.

I started teaching myself data analytics fundamentals in April 2023. I was rejected for a uni course as I couldn't pass the math test. But I persevered. I did the Google data analytics certificate and put my whole heart into it and went off on tangents with it, learning beyond what was in the course. I've just got a job offer from my first interview, and it's for a data analyst for the government at mid-management level. I have no idea how the heck this happened but I guess I gotta say THANK YOU. I thought, no way will I get it this quickly. But there you go! I had zero knowledge or professional experience when I started and here we are, only 5 months later!

@@danielhazard1680 I'm glad I did it for sure as it is for complete beginners and there's a lot of practice involved, which is how i learn best (by doing and making mistakes, not reading about it). I really enjoyed the part on R. HOWEVER, Python appears to be much more desired than R so potentially consider the IBM cert instead (I think that's the one that does python?). Definitely a good place to start! I did it in 3 months to cut costs (but completely busted myself with exhaustion lol)

Alex, I want to chip in my experience here. I was a Finance graduate, and just like you, have 0 background in data, but I do have a little bit of statistical knowledge coming from an Economics minor. I did all the things you and Luke taught on becoming a data analyst from scratch, all the projects, the portfolio, the courses, the recruiters, EVERYTHING. 3 months of intensive learning and another 3 months of job hunting afterwards, I got myself a job in an islamic finance company, collecting data of unit trust funds around the world and consolidating them into a database, constantly updating them, making analysis on them, finding pattern and trends. So Alex, I want to thank you, Luke, and many other teachers on KZread and all over the internet helping me on this journey, and I'm very lucky, grateful and thrilled that I made it.

Thank you so much for this Alex! There is so much info out here it can get pretty muddy. I appreciate such concise explanations and a clear path 😊
I'm starting my journey to change careers from insurance adjuster to data analyst. Thank you for all your information and guidance. Very excited for this change!
Watching this video before I get to studying module 2 of the Google DA course. I appreciate everything you’ve been doing for the community!
Thank you Alex! I'm excited to start this course on data analytics! I've been interested in the field for a while now and I can't wait to learn more about how to analyze and interpret data.
You have so much clarity, you’re an inspiration to many. ❤
Thank you Alex, you are amazing. I just start learning SQL now and feel like I come to the right place! With you how-to and can-do instructions, I feel more confident about my goal now. It’s really helpful!
You are a well grounded person in this glossy world of "online gurus" and "classy life coaches" this cant get more to the point, that`s what every video in your channel brings out. 🙏
I'm so happy I stumbled on this video. I am just about to start learning data analysis and I honestly didn't know where to start until I saw this video. Thank you so much Alex. I'm confident I'm going to be a data analyst by the end of 2023!
Thank you Alex for sharing, alot of persons like me are in the zone of switching careers and quite frankly its not that people want things for free but they just cant afford all the courses if you are like me coming from a no-code background. Lots of Practice on Real life Data set, Consistence and a WHY is what is needed. Thank you once again Alex for this playlist. 2023 will look good 😊
Thank you so much Alex! I had to extend my own heartfelt thanks for this free online course. I have tried the self study route and I am grateful to you for making the path to a data analyst role more tangible.
Proud to announce I'm starting my "road to becoming a Data Analyst" journey today. I'm up at almost 3 AM because I need to leave my current job immediately. I find this channel really inspiring. I will be going through ALL of Alex's courses in the next 2 to 4 months tops!

I have also decided to go in path of Data Analytics.. I have quit my job in Corporate after 8 years.. Now I am on unemployment support for 6 months already 2 months spent from those 6.. 2 months learning every single day 4+ hours.. mostly python.. like 80-90% of time is python then SQL and then the others.. Not spending any time by learning Power BI tools.. yet.. I have excel on decent level which I got from corporate work so no spending time on that too.. So I just need to master SQL and get decent on Python.. To be honest I belvie that you can master SQL in 1-2 months.. or get at least into very advanced level.. But Python guuuysss. Thats a different story.. I have alredy wrote more than 1000 lines of codes in python and still I think I have not even master the basics :/ Sometimes I start doubting myself if I am able to learn that.. but then I check my goals and I say.. I will!!! I have to :D got tired to live from pay check to pay check.. :/
I wanna go into project manager / business analytics so I’m learning all I can and this channel REALLY breaks it down thank you so much!!
Awesome. Thank you so much Alex for all you do. Always looking forward to great content from you.
I got here because of the Spotify podcast called Data Career Podcast #56. The host interviewed Teshawn Black and Teshawn gave a shoutout to Alex the Analyst on youtube. I thought that this must be a pretty good channel if someone seemed to be so grateful to Alex the Analyst. And now, it looks like it is a channel with excellent content, good vibes, and does not make Data Analyst career feel overwhelming. The introduction alone is a good roadmap. Thank you!
Degree in business logistics, no experience in Tech but know how to get things done. I hope to create an opportunity to get into this Industry! This video is a small step to the journey! Thank you! 🙏🏾
The roadmap is super clear and helpful. Thank you Alex!
I like the way you present and the way you simply things! we need more people like you/smiley and not boring at ALL/
Hey Alex! This is amazing. I've been looking to break into this field and had no idea where to start. I love how the videos are broken down. They are very easy to follow. I'm starting your bootcamp today (07/31/23) and can hopefully start my new career soon! Thank you!
Great video! The information on the skills and steps needed to become a data analyst in 2023 is very helpful and informative. The tips on the importance of continuing education and keeping up with the latest technologies in the field are especially valuable. Thank you for sharing!

Hi Alex, I'm a retired millwright/maintenance planner who is looking for something as a data analysist to subsidize my retirement as a side hack. I am interested in working from home and your lessons sounds appealing to me. I have been a user of MS Excel for a couple of decades for my job and also have written some simple queries for reporting using our company's IBM database back when we ran our maintenance software on a AS400 platform. I am going to watch your training lessons in hope that I can brush up and learn new techniques to become a remote data analyst. Anxious to get started!
I'm glad I came across your channel. I've been looking at how to get into Data Analytics so I can combine it with my experience & studies in Accounting/Bookkeeping and Product Management. This has not only shown me I was on the right track but helped me get even more motivated. I'll certainly be watching more of your recordings.

Hello sir! That’s so wonderful to hear. I’ve been getting certified in Python and R. I took a statistics class. And data science foundations. I learned Tabealu and Alteryx. The last step is resume and LinkedIn. Data Science is a touch different than Data Analysis. Also Data Validation in excel are easy formulas you can learn. Good luck on your journey sir! As data scientist we must know code a bit stronger than a data analyst.
Hey Alex! I’ve got a question! I just finished my Google Data Analytics Certification yesterday. I’ve been working on more case studies and I’m eager to start applying. However, do jobs offer any sort of “we’ll train you more” if you show you have a good beginner level understanding or is you’re expected to just go right on in with little help? I know you’ve said back in the day you didn’t have much technical skills but one of your jobs liked your personality and thought “we can train him”. Do you still think that is pretty prevalent today? Or is there more of an expectation, regardless of background knowledge, that you’ll come in and just take your spot.

SQL is hard, you can learn the basics in 3-4 days no doubts. Doing complicated things with SQL takes a lot more time. Make it 4-5 months min to master SQL only. Excel is tricky too. Some jobs ask for VBA and Excel, takes time to master Excel, let alone knowing the visual basic. Tableau or Power Bi. For my Power Bi certificate I had to reschedule the exam once. I didn't feel ready for it. The exam suggest that is for Junior analyst with 6 month experience. It's expected to have being working with Power Bi for at least that much before you get a professional certificate about it. It took me 4 months for the certificate btw and I barely passed it. Where you place R or Python in that short time frame? Knowing Python first, then how to work with libraries doing the actual data work, then if you need web scrapping also learning that. Just won't happen in a short period of time or at least not in a job ready proficiency.

Yesterday I had an interview in which they asked me if I knew databricks, Apache spark, Hadoop, Hive, there’s two more I can’t remember… industry is not as easy as this KZreadrs want to make it seem

@@christianalvarez9930 It really depends how high you aim at. I landed similar position as Business Analyst Intern (starting Monday). I had to only prove that I can work with data (Excel test) and writing about my findings, since the job require writing technical documentation. The way industry moves, are you right, much more is needed as per the demand for data increases. Don't get demotivated KZreadrs like Alex give you hope.
Have been watching your videos for 5 months now Did 3 interviews last week…still waiting to hear back Thanks man and happiest new year

Let’’s go to start this amazing bootcamp! I’m very happy for the opportunity that you give us. Thanks a lot.
Just found your channel, I love it! Finished Google Data Analytics in January on Coursera and am on my way to wrapping my head around a capstone project. Great info!
Just FYI for those who live in California… Coursera is free if you live in California through your public library :)

Mind Blown with all the content in your channel i have gone through many KZread channels for actually the clear cut idea of becoming a data analyst all they mentioned was just about the skills required.
