Hi Datanerds, What is the job portals to apply for remote jobs? Thanks guys.. |
Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by Gokoyer1401: 10:09pm On Mar 07 |
Bro, Is there any chance to get Data Analyst remote jobs from US or UK or anywhere else that pays reasonably well.. I can share my GitHub repo with you if that's necessary. lovelybobo: 1 Like |

Worthy to mention that this particular job didn't push me to the limits as I initially envisaged. I was stagnant but I acknowledged my situation with solutions to remedy it. Not to deter my ambition, I worked harder, skilled up, build projects and networked(very important as when opportunity meets preparation, success ensues). I was able to get an analyst role in a bank this year which is currently ideal for my career. It was never easy to be honest, the journey is fraught with perseverance, frustration, depression too. But never relent. Many of us are really really good at what we do. Opportunity is what lacks, the demand is skewed especially in the junior roles where supply is less than demand. The story changes as you ascend to the upper echelons. But getting in is the biggest challenge most newbies face. Hinokami: 1 Like |

I stumbled upon this thread in 2022 and didn't know how to become a data analyst but my desire was kindled. I started with python then gave up because it was not fun and I didn't know how to apply it to a real world case. Then I took a coursera course on excel and bought a udemy power bi course in may 2023, which I still haven't finished. Then I relocated to the UK half a year ago and reverse engineered the pathway to land a job. This means I was applying to jobs and attending interviews while I was learning. I impressed some interviews and some I didn't, you can't please everyone in this world. After persevering, I'm now a data analyst with a Tier 1 DCA company in UK. I hope I inspired you guys. 15 Likes 1 Share |

sheDD:Excel is elementary. Download power BI and learn how to visualize clean and your data with it. Then download SQL and it's database (adventure works and adventure works data management) this will help you work with sample data. Finally, learn python. Data analysts with knowledge in Python are priced higher world wide in terms of payment than an ordinary data analyst with knowledge in just Excel and Power BI. Good luck on your journey. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Keemy88:If you have zero knowledge about the basics of data analysis, Python is the worst course to start with cos you'd get frustrated and give up. You have to understand the basics first before learning Python. And another thing you must know about Python is that Dem no de learn am finish. (That's how my trainer use to put it) Always have your chatgtp and Google ready whenever you're writing your codes cos you certainly cannot memorize them all. Congratulations on your new job. 2 Likes |
Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by Nazgul: 2:34pm On Apr 13 |
MGeey:You need someone to physically teach you the basics. Cos Power BI works with data. Find someone who can point out the basics for you. Someone who would answer all your questions especially when working with formulas. And also how to get data, clean your data, analysis your data, and visualize your data. If you're watching YouTube without having any basic knowledge, believe me you would get lost. Cos if a firm employ's you and give you data of clients dating back to 10 years ago to clean, sort, analyse and visualize... it's then you'll understand that you didn't learn anything on YouTube cos you'll have so many unanswered questions. |

Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by Hinokami: 6:43pm On Apr 13 |
Nazgul: I beg to differ but Excel isn't elementary. There are a lot of businesses that rely ton excel and without it. So much would be lost. I use the triad of data analytics tools and excel by far is the most important in my organisation. 1 Like |
Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by Nazgul: 7:19pm On Apr 13 |
Hinokami:I wasn't talking about which is more important; cos your positive or negative feedback of any Data analysis tool would strongly depend on it's importance to you in your line or field of work... just as you pointed how important Excel is in your organization. What I simply meant which I believe you know is that on the ladder to becoming a data analyst, Excel is the easiest course you'll encounter as compared to Power BI, SQL, Machine Learning, Python...etc. 5 Likes |
Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by sheDD(m): 8:20pm On Apr 15 |
Nazgul:Thanks for your feedback So u are saying I shuld check powerbi wen I'm done with excel then Sql But then some said z sql b4 powerbi Which one do you think i shuld go into after excel?? Sql abi Powerbi |
Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by Nazgul: 9:09pm On Apr 15 |
sheDD:Those telling you to go for SQL before Power BI are not wrong, cos you can't effectively work with Power BI if you have zero knowledge of SQL. Reason being that Power BI is all about getting data for analyzation and visualization. And most of the sources of your data would be from SQL (adventure works data base...) For me, I'd say run both concurrently. 2 Likes |

Nazgul: You're right. Luckily, I got financial aid and I'm learning it on coursera. Being a data analyst is not a short journey. You're continously learning. |

The truth is that if you cannot solve real business problem with business data. You don't know anything yet. Try your best to offer real business solution. Learn how to design data gathering tools. There is money there also. You can use ODK Kobo Toolbox SurveyCTO and many others out there Solutions + Value = Money 3 Likes |

This thread used to be my motivator when I started learning data analytics about 3 years ago. Hearing from other peoples success stories did keep me going. Although I've had a lot of missed golden opportunities 😭 I currently work as a PA(remote) to a cloud architect while I utilize the monthly Azure subscription my boss gives me to learn data engineering Back then I took DA as a if I persish I persish subject because I felt there was nothing else worthwhile I could actually do |
