    your tips on working with recruiters are spot-on, especially the message prompt - short, sweet, and professionally crafted. The attention to detail like profile pictures and bios truly emphasizes the importance of first impressions. It's those little things that make a big difference!

I would love to take your Bootcamp to get a solid foundation, but I'm worried that the field is becoming too saturated. What are your thoughts on this?

I have been trying to download SSMS to start your course and it's just not working, I have deleted and downloaded it several times but it's still asking me to repair it. Is there anything I can do or another app I can download? I'm thinking of skipping SQL for now because of that. Please help I want to start the course as soon as possible.

    Alex, just starting my job search and your video could not have come at a better time. I'm deciding between a blog or posting on LinkedIn. Do you think one is more effective than another for getting a job? Also, any update on the course? I've been saving my money the last few months so I can sign-up once it comes out.

    • @AlexTheAnalyst
      @AlexTheAnalyst  10 місяців тому +2

      I think both are good - LinkedIn has a built in network so it's a good place to start. I think a Blog is good after that. And I'll start making announcements for the waitlist next week! I'm so honored to hear that! We are looking to launch in about 3-4 week so you'll start seeing a lot of stuff soon :)

    I'm in my grad certificate data analytics program and a recruiter just reached out to me for a role! My first recruiter. I'm incredibly interested but seems a bit above my skill level. I am not sure whether to just go for it or be a little more realistic in what skills are required for the job. After all, you always hear that the job description and requirements are only a "wish list." Any thoughts on that? I don't want to embarrass myself for going for a role I'm not ready for yet. The specific job presented to me only stated "skills in..." not years of experience. They specifically want EHR experience, which I have in my healthcare provider background. I'm new to navigating this field so I just have no idea what to even expect and how on the job training they provide.

  • @DarealJaci
    @DarealJaci 10 місяців тому +2

    Do you recommend reaching out to recruiters even if you haven't applied to a specific job. Let's say you want to work at HubSpot but there are no data analyst jobs that are a good fit at the moment. Can/Should I still reach out to recruiters to ask them about potential opportunities in the future?

    • @AlexTheAnalyst

    I work with recruiters fairly often, however, there are some scammers out there unfortunately, so be wise about who you share your information with. I had an "interesting" person who requested my full social security number, so that's when I politely said no thank you. smh..

      @francisfoo8381 10 місяців тому +3

      Definitely be careful about sharing your personal data with people online. I interviewed for a senior leadership position at a startup and got to the final stage where they were requesting for a ton of personal info, in addition to references. This was even before I received the offer. I shared my personal details with them...and guess what? They ghosted me afterwards. Be really careful about shady companies. Stand your ground and never let the need to get a job compromise protection and safeguarding of your personal details.

    • @ioan4o94
      @ioan4o94 10 місяців тому

      ​@@ryuhayabusa3540Unfortunately, on LinkedIn, the entry-level field is kind of screwed. Form what I've seen, it happens, because most recruiters are copy pasting/exporting the "job board posts" to different sites and if they haven't manually changed the "experience" field, the default is "Entry". So you end up with thousands of senior positions advertised as entry.
      And as a whole, most companies want experienced people, so it's doubling the issue
