It feels like I've been wasting my life all these years on a man so much that the only passions I have are:

1. Writing (I earned a few naira notes during the lockdown from this)
2. Hair styling (I fantasize about this and even beg people to let me make their hair)
3. Selling (I really love to sell)

What else? Nothing.

If I'm going to be sincere and truthful to myself, those three things are the only things that truly make sense to me when it comes to earning but I feel I should do more and spend some time in the cooperate world.

Wait, tell me y'all understand what I wrote up there because my mind is all over the place right now and I don't know what to think anymore.

Thank you in advance.

[/quote]Since you love writing and selling,you should consider Affliate marketing...it isn’t stressful and you can do it from the comfort of your bed...shoot me a mail or text my whatsapp in bio to get started.

Lol
This question you asked now is what online WhatsApp classes ND courses would ask you pay 5k for, after they might have fed you with seemingly useless- free materials.
I got those course through financial aid application

I can't tell you if you should choose this career path or not. But fhere things I can tell you about it.

I studied Agricultural Economics. And I am currently working as a data analyst. Unlike you, I came to the party late as I finished my schooling almost at 30.

When I was using my certificate to work, the highest offer I got was 70k. Now I am working with skills I thought myself and I am earnng more than twice that amount.

Data analysis is an infant field in Nigeria and there are opportunities globally. Notwithstanding, that doesn't mean there are no competitions. The major ingredient to landing a good DA job is experience. Hence, if you want to start, start now. Work for free if you must. Two years experience in the field will make sure you are not STRUGGLING to get an offer. 3-4 years will enable you to change jobs when you like (pls like everything, it's not a bed of roses).

Another ingredient for a successful career in this industry is intelligence. You need to have analytical mindset. DA is about problem solving. You need to learn how to ask the right questions and derive solutions. You can submit all the applications in the world in this field without a single response. Until your cover letter carries some works you have done and solutions you have brought to organisations. Hence, the place of HARD experience. You must love statistics and probability. While the ones you have learnt in school will take you 60% along (that's if you are not la cram la pour)), you must constantly learn trending mathematical concepts, DA methodologies etc)

In addition, skill set. If you have knack for knowledge, you will discover that the more you Know, the more you need to know. Over 60% of DA in Nigeria are actually Excel analyst. While in most industries Excel can do 100% of the work, you must keep working on your skill set.

Start with Excel. Learn it upto VBA level (though you will not need VBA 98% of the time). Pick Python Programming, SQL (MySQL or MSSQL), PowerBi or Tableaux. With these, you are good to go.

I am almost certain that with time, you wil pick interest in Machine learning, web developmen etc.

Where to start from? YouTube. It has 80% of the materials you will need. You can also try W3Schools, SoloLearn. For paid courses and certification (which I have not done), try Coursera. Note, what you need is skills not pali. Forget d yeye concepts of having pali.

I can take you Python for DA and all its libraries-not free not cheap.

PS: if you can't do presentation or talk before people, you may need to think twice before going into DA.

wow

Hi,Data analyst is very good and If you master it well then you are in real money.i am a data analyst,Data analyst is currently putting food on my table,If you dont mind I can take you through all what you need to be successful in that line.

I will appreciate pls: Odelta090@gmail.com

hello , please i am trying to start a career in data analysis ,i have used self study to learn excel but I don't know where to continue from . and I don't mind if you can recommend any training center in lagos

hi , i have been looking for this breakdown after mastering excel, please can you put me through on what next and also if you can recommend a training center

My case isn't very different from the op the only difference is I'm in my late 20's and just realised I can't continue with my current job cos apart from the fact that my earnings are meagre I'm downright unhappy doing what I do. So here's my dilemma

Contemplating learning ux design... does it have a Nigerian Market.?
Cos honestly I'm too old to be making wrong career choices

If you can sustain yourself while learning, go for it alongside Frontend development.

Is this a joke or something? so instead of developing herself, she should be looking for husband. As she is 21, if husband comes at 28, she will spend 7 years of her life waiting for rich husband. Biko kwa. Marriage is good, self development is also good.

OfeAchi:
Look for a good rich husband and marry.
I can recommend some well to do Igbo guys for you.
Forget, all these feminists. A woman without a man to take care of her is not worth living.
3 of my sisters are sit at home mothers, taking in millions in savings form their wealthy husbands. Leave Data Analysis for the guys!

I started with Python Programming. And I started with my phone (SoloLearn).

BUT i will advise you to start with Excel and try to have a laptop.

If you love reading, you can download Excel Bible. If not, you can search for Edureka tutorial on YouTube. Download the files they use in the tutorials (you will find them in the links under the videos). Follow along RELIGIOUSLY. note your aim is to know. "Not to carry name for head"

I have been gathering my lectures since about 3 years now. You can start now. Work for free.

Thanks sir

I sincerely hope this hits frontpage as I need as many sensible responses as possible.

This is going to be a really long one.

I'm a 21 year old penultimate student of one of Nigeria's federal universities.

I'm one of those, I can never work under a boss. I'd rather have my own business people. However, this choice took a different turn the relationship I thought was going to lead me through the isle ended in the mud. I eventually figured out that my decision to own my own business and not get a job were influenced by three things:

1. My life was wrapped around the guy I was in a relationship with. I didn't really have a life of my own. My ambition when I was with him was mostly to start a business, finish my first degree, and be a sit-at-home mum and wife. I kicked against getting a second degree and even rejected two sponsorships to relocate to Canada because I wanted to be with my man (my mumu no get part two that time).

2. I saw how badly my mom was treated at her place of work by her boss(es). I'd usually get angry and eventually vowed never to get a job.

3. I considered myself someone who's not brilliant and smart enough for the cooperate world. (Low self-esteem).

The nonsense relationship ended in a terrible way but I eventually picked up myself and moved on. Now, I'm beginning to love the cooperate world but choosing a career path has become a headache. I've been totally confused. Some of my classmates are taking ICAN and ACCA. Some are also taking CFA courses (I'm studying economics) but I have no interest in CFA, ICAN or ACCA.

I spoke with a friend of mine and he advised me to consider data analysis but I have my doubts and fears. So many questions have been ringing in my head.

How do I choose a career path that I don't eventually get frustrated with at the end of the day?

How promising is Data analysis as a career path?

What's the average pay in this field.

I'd really love to thread a path where I have even the slightest spark of passion but I can't seem to connect my passion with data analysis.

Is passion important in choosing a career path?

It feels like I've been wasting my life all these years on a man so much that the only passions I have are:

1. Writing (I earned a few naira notes during the lockdown from this)
2. Hair styling (I fantasize about this and even beg people to let me make their hair)
3. Selling (I really love to sell)

What else? Nothing.

If I'm going to be sincere and truthful to myself, those three things are the only things that truly make sense to me when it comes to earning but I feel I should do more and spend some time in the cooperate world.

Wait, tell me y'all understand what I wrote up there because my mind is all over the place right now and I don't know what to think anymore.

Thank you in advance.

How far about your Data Analysis

I enrolled for a udemy course.. let's see how it goes
