    Thank you, Alex! Want to also say thank you because I was doing an interview this week that wasn't supposed to be a technical interview, and I got thrown a question about when to use a view in SQL. You'd mentioned in one of your videos that that was a question you got in an interview, so I'd studied that and was able to answer it well! Yet another person helped by your content. 🙂

    Hi Alex, great topic you have picked up for this video . Coming on to the same topic what duties and role is expected from Mid-Level Data Analyst and also when a company says "Comfortable with using any data system too" and "Needs to be able to troubleshoot and work independently" ? Is it a red flag for a too much work ?

    • @QuantumImperfections
      @QuantumImperfections 2 роки тому +1

      As a Sr. Analyst I'd say not really.
      Junior Analysts: No experience or minimal should be required, usually "tool-focused" (i.e. "I know Python!") and have to be guided through most tasks.
      Mid-Level Analysts: 1-5 years experience and have tool experience (I know SQL, Python and PowerBI). They may lean on those tools to succeed BUT they should understand how to navigate through different information systems and when asked to analyze they know what needs to be analyzed or how to find out.
      Senior Analysts: 3-10 years of experience and are tool / system agnostic (may know / have preferred tools but understand how to use many and can adjust based upon the company's preferences). Senior Analysts should be completely self-starting and usually able to mentor Mid/Junior level analysts. A mid-level analyst with a lot of potential and a LOVE of learning can be a Senior Analyst.

    Hey Alex! Quick question. Do you think a portfolio (sql, tableau, python) can be too large?
    I did the projects you covered on your portfolio videos (with a few twists) and wanted to do some more on my own, but im worried it could get overloaded/overwhelming.

    • @AlexTheAnalyst
      @AlexTheAnalyst  2 роки тому +5

      I wouldn't make it overly complicated, but I don't think it can be too large. As long as what you're doing makes sense and it solves a problem.

    Do you recommend negotiating with no actual experience asides from being self taught analyst for your first offer?
    Or respond with with what is your budget for this position? When salary subject comes up.
    Thanks

    • @AlexTheAnalyst
      @AlexTheAnalyst  2 роки тому +11

      For me personally I didn't care as much about money at the beginning because I didn't have much bargaining power.
      I would probably just advise asking their salary range for the position and if it's within what you're looking for I would take it.
      Once you have even one year experience you can start negotiating.

    • @QuantumImperfections
      @QuantumImperfections 2 роки тому +2

      I agree with Alex on this one ^^^ 1+ years of experience and you have a least a little bit of negotiating power. Once you hit 3-5 years of experience you pretty much negotiate everything. Tag that on with the tools and skills you learn and you'll find that the analytics field promotes VERY quickly.
