    Legendary Advice! I've focused on learning a lot of stereotypical Data Analyst skills rather than a combination of very specific skills that would help me excel in one area of work. After applying for Jobs for 5 months I've realised my combination of generic skills are not highly valued. Study hard but smart too! Thanks for the advice Mo, if you see this message can you please recommend a great python course on datacamp? That would be awesome.

    "Consistency is the key." You're absolutely right. I am struggling with the consistency most. As an economics undergraduate, I can resonate with you. I am following you on LinkedIn, can you recommend some projects I can do with my technical skills and academic knowledge that will help me to build economic understanding. Thank you for the honest opinion that really matters in today's world.

    Hi Mo, love your content as always. And I do think it is very useful and practical for your advice for not searching for specifically 'data analyst'.
    But at the end of the day, when I start searching for new roles, I need to start with some keyword to search right? If I don't want to limit myself on roles, what kind of keyword that I could search into please? like 'analyst?'

    I again appreciate your no BS approach. I still need practice with subquery/cte/windows functions. I think though, for my portfolio, my issue isn't the visualization it's the analysis. Can you do do an analysis only type of video? It find it hard to write up a problem solved project from kaggle data. I can only write up what I find in the data but there's no real way to offer a solution.

    True. Title doesn’t matter exact pays and gives options to staff’s performance evaluation. I have accounting background that real helps with my current role of preparing statistical data reports, clean up data, qa/qc the data manually. The best way to learn is to do the work and keep doing it to improve skills. Questions: i built overview/dashboard of data in excel manually. How hard to transfer that overview data into power BI data visualization?

    I recently lost an interview because I was advertising myself as a data analyst. We were in a group interview and we were asked about our academic background. After responding that I am an econ graduate, I doubled on the fact that Econ was just glorified stats (tho untrue, I thought it'd give me an advantage).
    The interviewers lost interest in me immediately and focus on other candidates from "other backgrounds".
    I asked one of the interviewer what just happened, they mentioned almost the same you thing you did and they also added your ability to move from your past experience to learn and execute data skills is testament of your passion, resilience and curiosity.

    I do not know why, sir, but every time HR reviews my resume, they reject it. I have a background in commerce, so perhaps that is why I listed four projects on my resume, including your project, London Bike. I completed the course on data analytics Python, SQL, and Tableau, and it seems like there is a project error.

      Lol, It was humor to the point where he mentioned using your skills to get into a position. I have had an administrative background for the past 10 years and that included me getting my six sigma, pmp and having very in dept knowledge about Microsoft 365. I have been trying to get my foot in the door for years and I while I do have a degree in business analytics, the experience is where I hurt. I had a team that I interviewed for that was excited about my admin background because their organization was a mess. But they were mostly excited about the fact that I could dual the position as the teams admin and then work as an jr analyst under the senior team. Me personally I’m totally okay with it, I got my cake and can eat it but it just goes back to the point of pulling all the stops. Once you get your foot in the door, show them you are capable. If you are coming from no exp.
