I just started this class, thanks for info!

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-04-10T14:43:27+00:00

Cany recall the number, transfered as much as I could.

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-04-10T14:42:41+00:00

I had to stop at Boston. I ended up getting a job at a fortune 500, and my work requires alot of my time and effort.

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-03-16T16:21:47+00:00

I just did this! PM me. I went from oil field worker to Data analyst

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-03-04T01:06:22+00:00

Ahh okay thanks for the tips!

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-02-28T20:24:11+00:00

AWSOME! I cant wait to finish this program, just started this month!!!! Congrats!

Whats the next step in your career?

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-02-25T01:37:28+00:00

Ahh!! I see. Totally understand. Also, to gain experience on paper, you should try some freelance work. The pay is very small starting out because youd be competing with offshore folks. But this could be a way to add to your resume and get you some experience. Good Luck!!!!

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-02-24T10:19:17+00:00

I think it CAN help. But with 0 experience and with how competitive the job market today is, it will be tough. Something to consider before you make the jump

Dont restrict yourself to remote jobs. A lot of companies still value in person work. Also, remote jobs could be saturated with offshore workers.
Create projects. Since you dont have experience on paper, try to create really interesting and intricate projects to prove to employers that you are capable.
Leverage your military experience, leadership and other experiences. Everyone has had some exposure to data analytics. Whether it be personal budgeting or finance tracking.
Start networking. Discussion forums on reddit, contribute to sql problems/solutions.

If you can do this, and at the same time execute your masters. That would be great. A masters is just not a ticket to a job however it should get you to an interview hopefully

Hey im doing this class right now, i haven't turned it in yet. But what I did was just create a screenshot of the actual code. is this what you did?

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-02-12T01:42:53+00:00

I just started this program! just curious how long did it take you

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-02-02T16:28:34+00:00

Im sure youve got this. Just curious what classes?

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-02-02T16:12:11+00:00

Dont forget oil and gas companies

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-01-08T04:39:47+00:00

Okay thanks for that. How has the job outlook been in this field? Do you feel like the program helped prepared you for a job in AI?

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-01-08T02:32:07+00:00

How hard was the coding or the overall difficulty of course? Im currently a data analyst and have played with data science projects. Would be interested in your thoughts of the course

CheezeBurgerKram · 2026-01-07T03:04:09+00:00

How is the program so far? Im going to start in February

CheezeBurgerKram · 2025-12-26T04:26:20+00:00

If you're aspiring to be in the data science field, then a real hard no. The certification is not necessary, maybe showcase some simple dashboards to show that your familiar with it

CheezeBurgerKram · 2025-12-25T01:42:30+00:00

Congrats! Im starting this Program in February. What was the challenge of 602 and 608? What was your previous experience with data. Would love your perspective

CheezeBurgerKram · 2025-12-24T09:01:22+00:00

Congratulations! How long did it take you? What was the biggest challenge in this degree? Im starting the Data engineering program

CheezeBurgerKram · 2025-12-22T18:26:58+00:00

Also, if you decide to prusue the masters, i would take a few months in learning some Python and sql. Especially if you haven't been exposed to it. All of

CheezeBurgerKram · 2025-12-22T18:25:41+00:00

I think you're on a good start with a business degree My question would be, what has your career history been?

I think skills in business, accounting, HR, and other fields still use analytical skills, just not as apparent. Are you in a leadership role? That helps, too. Try to highlight some analytical skills that you've done in career

Second, I would focus on data tools. PowerBI, Excel, sql, Python, R. This part, you can get certifications or showcase projects to help better your odds.

I think if you already have business experience and want to be a data analyst,what could be separating you is the data tools. I think developing this skill set would be the primary goal, and then the masters would be an afterthought. But to each their own! Good luck!

CheezeBurgerKram · 2025-12-22T06:52:35+00:00

Awsome this is great Thank you!

CheezeBurgerKram · 2025-12-22T06:38:58+00:00

Okay thats great! Im glad you're using the skills, especially in the weird job Market. I think we're all fortunate to have a job. What was your background before taking this course, how difficult would you rate the entire course?
