The more I dive deep. The more I feel confident that this career path is possible. I was a chef before but I believe that this is the path that I need to follow.
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!
I got so excited when you said you were previously a recreational therapist!! I’m currently a CTRS working in a community based setting and I’m looking into becoming a data analyst. I was worried my background was too different, but this video gave me so much hope. I’m so happy I clicked on this video!
Psychology graduate here and I don’t think it is that much different. Spss is something I had to use for my undergrad and masters. Analysing data is something I had to do all the time. I am sure you have skills from that.
I agree 100% with your point about working with a recruiter to help you get a job. All the recruiters I've met at career fairs have been super helpful and has increased my chances of getting a job immensely. Good video!
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 💙.
Music for my ears, exactly what I needed, I am doing the google Data Analyst course and this video motivated me, even more to finish it faster, although I am going at my own pace, I know I am going to achieve it! THANKS!!
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!
i'm a former physical therapist too. Have contributed to some research papers and I found out that I'm more attracted to this than the actual physical therapy job. I am at the beginning of the journey tho. Good luck to you all!
@@thomasflii super late on this reply! A couple of months after I initially commented that I actually transitioned into academia, where I have significantly more opportunity for data analysis. However, I've been providing analytics on the side through freelance work.
Prepping for the interview is very important! I think I lost opportunities for skipping that part and landed my contract because I was super prepared for technical questions
I absolutely love the field and know that I’d kill it especially in my market. My fear is starting in this field at 31 years old and “aging out” but I’m still inspired to jump in!
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
Hey Alex! Greetings from Colombia :) Just wanted to thank you for helping me through all my process of getting a Data Analyst job. I finally landed one and I'm convinced that all your awesome content helped me a lot! Please keep doing that amazing job!
I have no degree (Bachelors or Associates) at all, my education in Analytics is a combination of Thinkful (bootcamp), Google Analytics, and self taught through a few Udemy courses (all of which you've recommended in the past). Getting a proper degree isn't something I am able to do right now due to financial restrictions and some time (I have a 6 month son that I co-parent throughout the day). I've been applying to places since February with not 1 interview. Is my lack of degree holding me back THIS much? Huge fan of your platform, I have completed and shared the 3 portfolio projects you've created as well. Thank you for all that you do, has been very helpful thus far.
I have a similar situation where I don’t have a degree whatsoever and I am only just starting to take interest in data analytics but I am scared to take so much time in doing these certifications only to not get a job because I don’t have a degree. Struggling to get a degree coz of finances but maybe can apply for scholarships if I do end up registering for a degree.
Alex, you are the absolute best! I can’t thank you enough for this amazing detailed content. There is so much out there on “how to become a data analyst,” but no one is as thorough or open. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
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
hey Alex! your videos really helped me from knowing what skills I have to know to building my cv and finally getting a data analyst job! I shifted careers and really needed all the help I can get. appreciate your videos a whole lot, man
Your vids are great, i recently i got an offer for a traineeship data analist at an big firm. Your videos helped me getting more info and researchtopics. Thank you!
I needed this video...I'm a Chef De Cuisine trying to get out of the industry because, I just simply am tired of being a all-day all-hours manager of a restaurant and my staff.
Alex, I absolutely love the way you explain each aspect. Please keep on making videos. New to your channel hence, need to check your previous videos on Data Analyst. Want to be a data analyst with next to zero knowledge. 🤞🤞 Help me out 😬
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.
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.
Wow I love how you organize your video and present so much useful information in a short period of time. By the far the best video in terms of data analyst entry-level job seeking! Thank you and I'm glad that I watched this!
Hi Alex, thank you so much for sharing these great tips in all your video. I've been watching many of your videos recently and you truly made me feel a lot more inspired. I have one question regarding the sequence of learning SQL -> Tableau/Power BI -> Excel -> Python, would you advise going deeper in each one before moving to the next, or trying to learn the basic for each of them in that sequence before diving deep into one or all of them?
I would say entry level will be fine for your next attempt. When come to a complex project, you will review which aspects you have to learn more about.
So thankful to have come across your channel. It's so hopeful and so much guidance in helping people to switch careers to a data analyst role. Thank you so much~
I've just graduated University in Business Informatics and looking for something to jump off. This is the best set of advices put beautifully together so far I found. Thank you so much. Please make more videos like this!!!
Hello Mr. Alex, Hope all is great. I really recommend you make videos about the mindset of the data analyst like how to think in the right way, and how to figure out the right Qs? like " Head First Data Analysis it will be really helpful for us and thank you.
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.
I appreciate that video. I feel like your personally reaching out to me. I have no experience at all in DA. Presently, I'm half way through the google DA certification and I am almost done with my first SQL course on Udemy. II have an idea for a project that I will be working on very soon. Thanks for the video.
Wow this really resonated with me- I am a therapist in a private practice and am looking to transition my career into the data analyst or Business Analyst field and have been wondering how I can make that career change.
You just gave me a great step by step guide of what I need to do. It goes a long way to help me plan out from certificate to interview. So awesome! Thank you.👌
Hey Alex I started 6 months ago with all the skills required for Data Analysis (Python, R, SQL, etc.) and I found a great motivation/orientation with your videos. Currently, I am trying to decide which certificate should I go for: Google (R) or IBM (Python). PD: I love analyzing economic data, market research, etc.
Thank you Mr. Alex.. I am aspiring to be a Data Analyst. Currently learning the skills required, hoping to come back on this thread to say I have finally gotten my dream job😍
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.
I am a teacher by profession and I have been looking for vidoes to help me or guide me through the process in transitioning to becoming a data analyst. I have started Google Analytics course in Coursera and now in module 2. One of the lessons was to build a portfolio and I don't know howww like NOOOO...thanks for this video.
I do believe that I'm Alex's favorite. Thank You so much. I'm so glad you responded to me with this video. Thanks. I'll update you if I get the job, but ultimately it'll be thanks to your good advises and expertise.
Love from India I am 28 year old I completed my graduation Bcom in 2012 but right now I am ZERO *but my dream is to do data analysis job in USA it's possible* I don't know how to start 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Only 1 year and this video is completely useless. “No experience,” “Just got out of high school but need a job,” well you’re NOT becoming a Data Analyst in 2023. 2+ years experience required by virtually all jobs, even entry level.
Any entry level job is gonna have absurd qualifications like that i've even seen 3+ years and a bachelor's degree required for a very low paying entry level job it was practically an internship advertised as a full time. It wasn't data analytics, it was building xbox controllers for Corsair but i applied and got an interview, with no experience, no college, only a few simple projects. Most requirements for most jobs especially anything tech related is fluff made up by clueless HR people.
@@nathanwhite704 That’s a good point, the only job in the tech industry I’ve ever really tried to seriously apply to was a Game Tester job in SoCal. They took that shit so seriously it was astonishing to me. “How many languages can you program in? If you were playing a new game with X and Y spec requirements, which of these 3 motherboards, as well as which of these 3 graphics cards would you purchase? Out of these 3 answers, which is the correct path a coder would take to fix a Bug in an MMORPG with 10,000 active players, wherein characters randomly glitch through the floor in certain areas of the world map?” . So now when I’m looking at all these “entry level” data jobs I get discouraged because of that experience with something I thought was just going to be “Take this Xbox game, play it for the next 2 weeks, report back all the data you can.”
bruh, almost all of the job descriptions i see requires sht ton of responsibilities and requires 2 years of experience etc. even if I filter entry level. i mean cmon . its frustrating
Hello, Alex. Great video as always. Just a little suggestion, maybe you can add "Data Analyst Roadmap 2021" on the title after the actual title using "|" this sign. Thanks a ton for your dedication and weekly contents. 🥰🥰
Hey alex, was curious if you had any input on how to decide what industry you actually wind up in? would love to hear a video with your input on that, Thanks so much for all the content once again man. your killin it.
You're the first person to notice! Haha I am growing out my mustache and will be trimming my beard soon - I did it a little last time, but it'll be even more apparent in the coming videos lol
This is a fantastic and inspiring video. Really makes me feel like this is possible to do without a degree in Data Analytics related fields. I had been learning some Python, but I think I'll shift priorities a bit and start learning SQL tomorrow! Thank you sir.
The more I dive deep. The more I feel confident that this career path is possible. I was a chef before but I believe that this is the path that I need to follow.
Did you achieve
how is it going a year later
I'm really interested to know how it is going ? I'm a chef too and I need to change my career.
crazy bc im in the same boat currently. please update! #BOHFam
I’m curious if you found anything? I wanna do this, but not sure if I would be able to get a job
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.

Am curious too. On the path to become one
Manifesting (and working hard) toward a data analyst position ✨

Btw, love your content and how it was delivered =)
THE MUSTACHE 1000/10 insane!
You're the first person to notice! Haha I am growing out my mustache and will be trimming my beard soon - I did it a little last time, but it'll be even more apparent in the coming videos lol
Can you do a video on how to become a freelance data analyst? I would like to become my own boss and become a digital nomad one day :)
Yes, I want to become a digital nomad myself.
Very informative. Helped in clarifying many doubts I had in this process. Also I'm following your portfolio project 👍 thanks for that 🔥👍
That's great! Hope they are helpful!
How excited I get when I see notifications of new video uploads by Alex . Also Alex , how can we conversate/talk about you in person ?? .

You can always message me on LinkedIn :)
This is a fantastic and inspiring video. Really makes me feel like this is possible to do without a degree in Data Analytics related fields.
I had been learning some Python, but I think I'll shift priorities a bit and start learning SQL tomorrow! Thank you sir.
Is this possible without a degree then?
