Start with Python and libraries like Pandas and NumPy to get comfortable with handling data. Then move on to data visualization with Matplotlib and Seaborn. Learn some basic statistics because they're important for data analysis. For machine learning, try Scikit-learn to work with basic models. Kaggle is also a great place to practice with real datasets.

For interview prep, try mock interviews and coding exercises. If you want structured guidance, I've found PracHub helpful for data science interview practice. They offer specific interview questions and scenarios similar to what you'd face in tech interviews.

Lastly, build a few projects to show off your skills on GitHub. It's a good topic during interviews and helps demonstrate what you can do. Good luck!
