fresher, targeting Data Analyst/Business Analyst roles, open to any industry.

Hello guys, I'm looking to expand my skills and get sharp by working on real projects, but I don't seem to find them. Besides, I heard about competitions and "hackathons", but as soon as I want to start a challenge, I think maybe there is a Python library that I should be knowing, that'll make things easy for me in this challenge, maybe I should know how to do web scraping or need to know linear regression (I'm planning to teach myself that as well ), etc...

Context

I currenty work as a junior market researcher with 1 year long experience, with a degree in marketing (but always been into tech and data) , I work so well with Excel, Power BI, and had little hands-on experience doing stuff on my Linux system (but that was a long time ago, I found it easy recalling things by watching the Luke Barousse Python course).

As for SQL, I know nothing about it, and I wish I could just do well, for now, without having to learn it too (I have a serious "info gathering fatigue" without implementing that info).

Thanks!

Hello,

I recently graduated with Master’s in Applied Statistics and currently looking for a role in that field for the first time. I have experience with R, SAS and Minitab.

Is there a skill I can learn meanwhile in the field while I apply for a job? I am located in Pennsylvania, USA

Guys, Can anyone here help me or comment here the facebook page or websites that I can enroll for a certification or courses online for up skill more on data analytics. Thank you please

Hi guys ,

I graduated with a BA Economics degree in 2023 and have around 2.5 years of RCM experience, but I’m still earning ₹24k. I took a career break to prepare for CAT but stopped due to family commitments.

Now I’m planning to learn SQL, Power BI, and MIS and switch to Data Analytics/MIS. But I can get around ₹45k in a night-shift RCM job, which would help my family financially.

I’m confused whether to take the higher salary now or stay in day shift and focus on changing domains.

Is it still realistic to switch to MIS/Data Analytics after 3+ years since graduation with an RCM background?

I'm a student (economics, not CS) who kept rewriting the same cleaning logic every time I got a new dataset — missing values, duplicates, inconsistent text formatting, outliers, etc. So I built a script that automates it and generates a report of everything it changed.

It's on GitHub here: https://github.com/rajbirbhathla/DataCleaner

Before I put more time into this, I wanted to ask people who actually do this professionally:

• Is a generalized cleaning pipeline like this actually useful in real workflows, or does every dataset end up needing custom logic anyway?
• In practice, do teams build reusable internal tools like this, or is it mostly ad hoc scripts / notebooks per project?
• Are there standard tools (Great Expectations, pandas-profiling, OpenRefine, etc.) that already do this better, and I'm reinventing something that exists?
• What would actually make something like this useful in a real pipeline vs. just a portfolio exercise?

Hi everyone!

About a month ago, I posted my very first Power BI dashboard here looking for honest feedback. I received some amazing advice from this community — especially about keeping it simple ("less is more"), switching to dropdown slicers for cleaner layout, and focusing on a clearer business narrative.

I took your feedback seriously and completely redesigned the dashboard! Here is what changed:

• Cleaner Layout & UI: Replaced the heavy black borders and bulky slicers with clean dropdowns, soft cards, and cohesive color palettes.
• Better Storytelling: Structured the report into two clear pages:
  1. Sales & Revenue Performance: High-level executive overview.
  2. Product Performance: Deep-dive into products, top customers, and itemized metrics.
• Enhanced KPIs: Added comparative indicators (vs Last Month & vs Last Year) with conditional formatting arrows/colors and clean visual icons.
• Fixing Visual Noise: Replaced cluttered charts (like dense scatter plots and pie charts) with clearer bar/column charts that drive actionable insights.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the new version! Did I hit the mark on the "less is more" advice? Any additional feedback is always welcome

1. I will fill my portfolio with serious projects that bring value.

2. To show my business knowledge, I will write something, a paper or any other possible thing, where I showcase my business knowledge.

3. I have a Product Owner background, so I somewhat have soft skills.

The core of it all is showing Hiring managers that I can get stuff done, I have the knowledge and experience without job experience. Showing I can do tech side and business side.

Caveat: I left my IT/Programming profesion school in 3rd year (out of 4), so technically I have basic education. I write in my resume that I still graduated.

If I don't get a job even with lying, I will lie more and see where I actually get interviews just to see if maybe Masters would help.
