      great question! python is only necessary if you want to go into Data Science!
      i’d you’re just trying to be a Data Analyst, having just the basics of python is okay! really knowing SQL is the important part!

    how is it possible to work in more than one company at the same time (only if it is freelancing or part time i think)... i am a data analyst and im looking for doing something similar as working in many companies at the same time........btw you are about to be my favorite youtuber data analyst

      awww thank you so much for the kind words!! 🥹 that means so much!
      I actually worked for all those companies at separate times and not all at once :’) l
      however from what I do know, working for multiple companies gets tricky and you want to make sure that there’s no conflicting and sensitive company data that could give either company an advantage… I believe that falls under trade secrets and could potentially be illegal depending on the companies

    As a fresher it's difficult to get a job as DA, It's even better if you go for ML or AI as a additional skill it will create more opportunity currently, Im also learning Data modeling, Python Libs, ETL framework for Data Engineering role. ✌️

    thanks a lot!!! that was so informative T_T
    im a freshman pursuing a business degree, and i do wanna get a foot in that door
    can i ask, besides all the tools needed (which i'm self-learning), how can i develop a better business sense?
    i mean its kinda abstract and i really dont know how to dive into it (w_w)
    and can u give me some tips or things that i should learn/prepare when i'm a business-based student in order to have a certain edge over other tech-based candidates?
    thank youuuuuu!!

    • @TimothyJoo
      @TimothyJoo  Місяць тому +1

      awww I’m glad I could help!
      In terms of being more business minded just always think about the needs of the company. What exactly they NEED and build around that. Too many talented people in tech focus on building what they want and it often causes unnecessary set backs.
      For other tips, it depends on what kind of business you’re going into! Not sure what your focus is on so can’t really give a detailed answer on that

    am planning to do a career switch, I work as a video editor the pay for the media industry where I'm at right now is so low, one could only survive eating grass and lizards lol... jokes aside* Any advise for a brotha novice to kick start as a data analyst?

    • @TimothyJoo
      @TimothyJoo  9 днів тому +1

      I feel that... i do editing on the side for a pretty large UA-cam channel and the pay has been awful
      I would say start learning hard skills like SQL and Excel, then apply them to a project! The only thing between you and a person in the industry is experience. Since you are new, you need to make your own experience and then go from there!
      Thankfully a lot of resources and ways to make your own project! i just made a video about that if you do need some easy initial pointers!

      depends on the role! most companies want in office working post pandemic
      I personally believe all data roles should be fully remote. With nearly all systems in the cloud, there's no reason to be in person besides better collaboration. Most Data work is done on our own too!
      I'm still searching for my new role at the moment, but definitely prioritizing remote or hybrid work.

      Great question! Python def leans more towards data science and using Machine Learning Models! So more towards that business intelligence engineer position
      Using SQL is the industry standard and it’s a simpler way to do it, esp working with databases and such! Plus it’s what most analysts require more so than Python
