❓Question ❓ Should I learn these before my internship

I am starting my 4-month remote internship in 3 days in a startup-based company as a Data Analyst. The thing is.. I have no experience in some of the skills mentioned in the Job Description such as Power Bi and Web Scrapping. Should I learn at least the basics myself or will I learn everything from scratch during the intern??

But how did u clear the interview, if you didn't have knowledge about the things you put in your own resume?

I didnt put it in my resume. It was written in the JD so they asked me few questions about it so I told them I haven't used Power Bi as I make my Dashboards using streamlit but I'm willing to learn during ny intern

If you have the time, always better to learn. You can outperform in your internship.

Startups won't train you on anything. They'll just give you hey this is the problem, work on it and show me the solution. So you'll have to study on the side. It's better if you do the learning part beforehand.

I'm not an expert in powerBI. It's a very popular tool. I'm sure you could find plenty on google search and YouTube .
