These are absolutely great tips, Alex! Optimizing your LinkedIn profile will definitely be helpful in getting that data analyst job.
Hello Alex, I'm Raymond from Ghana and I take inspiration from your videos. I'm teaching myself Data Analytics by watching your videos and a few other from other channels. Almost through with Excel now moving to SQL. Great videos
You make the entire journey seem so easy. I have been an English teacher for the past 18 years. I am now trying to switch career and and a friend recommended Tableau instead of nursing. I started with CNA, but I am not really enjoying it. Initally I was relunctant, but I will give it a try. Thank you Alex, these are great resources. I will be back to testify.
Seriously this is gold!! 🎉🎉
I graduated with a Master’s in Exercise Science back in 2017 and have not had much luck with finding work. I am now a Deli Clerk at a local grocery store. When you said cashier, that resonates with me because that is the caliber of job I’ve had since graduating. I’m on the data analytics path and have two portfolio projects and am working on my third. I hope to be a data analyst by 2025!

How are things going for you halfway through 2024
Ever since I found my interest in data analytics I adore you as my mentor. Although I learnt earlier SQL in my graduation but I forgot when I started my career into advertising agency and right now I want to switch to data analytics field which I can do I got that more courage from your videos. Google data analytics more 3 weeks it will need and then I will have my certification. Right now working for advertising company and worked in market research as well and fell in love with data. I have given myself time for an year max to get a job in data analytics field. Hope for the best. And yeah watching all of your videos for thst help. It's amazing how you guide all of us. 👍❤️Thanks Alex
Heck yeah, such great tips! Loved the idea of strategically arranging your resume to improve your chances of success with your job hunt!

Hi Alex, I started watching your videos today. Very insightful. I realise that I know some of the stuff you're talking about, being from the IT field. But I still need to polish up and get Data Analyst certification, and portfolio, all without a job. So I have to get my hands dirty for the next few months.
This is what I needed to check out and I’m now a subscriber. I’m going through a data analytics course with Google. I’m currently a teacher looking to make a change. I’ve been so interested in data analytics and feel it’s time to change careers.
That's what called "straight point"... No big intro, simplified explaining, good advices. Thanks a lot, you're inspiring me all the time. All the best from a big fan 💙.

Alex, as a current physical therapist seeking to transition into data analysis, your story strongly resonated with me. I completed a PhD with an emphasis on statistical analysis using SPSS, R, excel, and tableau. That experience, along with data collection/visualization in my practice (hospital rehabilitation), led me to fall in love with the analysis process. I’m half way through the google analytics certification and hope to transition soon!

Hi Alex, thanks for this great video. I just wanted to ask you if you can make a video about project ideas you recommend, it would be great if you talk about datasets we can work on or maybe gathering our own data through web scrapping for example and also focus more on the data cleaning part since I read that it's almost 80% of a DA job.
Thank you for making this channel. I'm in the navy and have been teetering on the edge of getting out and getting into data analysis. Now I think I'm gonna jump.
