Summary:
1. Learn Excel, SQL, Tableau or any BI tool and all of these should take around 2 months to learn
2. Do projects on those (2 on SQL, 1 on Excel and 1/2 on Tableau)
3. Build a resume and add projects and skills on the resume
4. Work with a recruiter to get job or to maximize your chance to get interviewed
5. Prepare for both general and technical interviews (tech interviews are mostly on SQL)
6. Lean any Cloud platform and AI if you have more time

[danyellefoster]

1. Research what an analyst does
2. Research the skills : SQL, Excel, Tableau to start. Learn more later.
3. YouTube University is free. Udemy, Coursera, and *Analyst Builder* for more in depth learning.
4. Create portfolio and projects
5. Create resume
6. Work with a recruiter(s)- better tactic than just submitting many resumes
7. Nail interview and get the job!

Hello Alex, thank you for all you're doing for the newbies in the data analytics community.

I want to become a data analyst and I've started following tutorials on your channel, especially your 70 videos data analytics bootcamp.

I'm really committed to learning and practicing as much as I can believe before the end of 2024, I will land a role as a data analyst.

I'll come back to quote this comment when I finally land a job.

To everyone who is starting the journey to become a data analyst in 2024, I wish us all good success.

Once again, thank you Alex

This video was needed with the new year around the corner and with people thinking about their resolutions

I started on this journey into data analytics with some tech knowledge and honestly I’m hoping I found my career. Not just for the income but I wanna do something I love. I love math and logic puzzles and have some college courses. Today is June 4 2024 and I’m using this as my goal marker to study hard, get my life together and be great

Hello Alex,
I cannot thank you enough for these videos here. Before 5-6 months i was just wondering about Data Analyst job, and started practicing excel and sql with these guides. At that time i was teacher of economics in high school in Serbia, and wasn't satisfied with that. One month ago I've landed a Data Analyst job, and guess what, i'm just starded. I want to learn python and dive into machine learning it's really interesting for me and drives me. Thank you a lot mate. Best regards from Serbia. 👋🇷🇸

[jeremyv]

Appreciate you making a video about this Alex!

It's been 4 months and I've completed the courses/Projects for PowerBI, Excel, Tableau as well as the Coursera Google Data Analyst Certification.

I'm on a week vacation and I was overthinking and wondering what I should be doing next and this gave me some direction on where to go. Finishing up my portfolio/ resume page and the SQL questions next!

[slapto]

Thank you for everything you're doing for the community Alex! Im tapped in and will become a data analyst in the next 6 months.

[maurine]

[TheFrancoF]

Oh my! I'm actually trying a change in career, going from the Army to Data Analytics and your channel appearing in my recommended list is just amazing! I'm taking the Google Data Analytics (beginner) and was a little bit confused to where to go after it.

I'm gonna 100% take a look at some of your courses! Thank you, Alex!

[chanukamadusanka]

I started to learn data analytics tools from your chanel and right now i have gained a lot of knowledge like excel, power bi, sql, python.thank you so much ❤️

[sgeggeg]

Since I saw you last year, I’ve completed the Google Data Analytics Certificate, and I am on the capstone for the Advanced Certificate. First education I’ve completed, hopefully I can get it together to become fluent enough to pass interviews. They were difficult for me to retain enough to pass with aid, but maybe now a second pass will bring me where I need to be.

[pedromarcos]

i just finished my marketing degree which gave me some exposure to business analytics. im gonna persue that route and this video really helped me with guidance. thank you and i hope we all get our future analytics jobs and self actualise!

[TheLilliantaylor]

The way Alex words things and explains things really just clicks with my brain.

I would love a resume building video that has examples for both the newer individuals to the work force in general, but also for people who are trying to make a career shift after 10yrs of work experience and seeing how to make your previous work still support your career shift. Especially what kind of transferable skills might be worth highlighting.

[sawendalbshar]

Thank you Mr. Alex I started following you more than a year ago and I am learning a lot and a lot from you and the most amazing thing is that my English has become very strong by watching and learning from you it's great to develop in many ways by Education, watching and training

[firdausihussaini]

A Portfolio is something I had never thought of after Graduating. Having a place to showcase my skills has not only been a gamechanger, but has been a way to help boost my own confidence within the Data World. 😁
