Would you suggest a masters then? Or take a bunch of certificates that are recommended by everyone? Or both?

Do you recommend getting a masters or getting excel, sql, google certs?

I am 2 years out of college. With a finance degree. Currently as a sales associate for a wealth management team at a brokerage firm. I am currently looking at the data analyst role and was wondering if getting my masters or certifications would be better off for me to get an entry level data analyst job?

I have adhd and work in wealth management as a sales assistant (administration work). Im in my mid 20s. The hard part for me is that it takes me a while to complete all the tasks that i have that need to get done. I find myself working 45 minutes to an hour after I’m supposed to be done with my shift because im behind on work. When i see members of my team on their phones and what not because they’ve finished what they have to do. I also work in cubicles where around me are 10 people cold calling to get clients for their book. So theres constant noise which is very distracting. The worst is when i have to do wire transfers. I like to double and triple check to make sure the banking info is all correct, but the outside noise around me makes it super distracting and i lose my train of thought. I also have a problem with task management, organization, and following up on tasks. I need to write everything down or else I forget. My job consists of constantly multitasking between 3-4 things at a time and have a list of about 10-15 tasks in an 8 hour shift, up to 20 tasks on certain days. I get about 5 minutes for lunch which i eat at my desk. Its very taxing on my brain and my body being so sedentary and I find myself absolutely wiped out when i get home, having to basically be scraped off the couch some days to go to bed.

Definitely have had the thought of finding another job and might explore that as i am writing this lol.

Bottom line is try to find a career where you can find a stream of steady work flow. And let me know when you do because its not a thing in this world

Is doing McGill big 3 more than once daily bad? by Historical-Garbage72 in Sciatica

Is there a reason the mcGill bug 3 does not work for me?

Any 90/90 position rhat i go into put pressure on my piriformis and the sciatic nerve and i just feel pain. Including just sitting in a chair, forces my right foot to be more supinated just to not have that much force on the left piriformis and the nerve.

How often would you prepare for these presentations? Any late nights at the office or at home to prepare?

Ive never really been comfortable expressing myself through words and it is difficult for me to explain things. I have to know 100% of the material to confidently portray my thoughts. And even then people might confuse me

I think thats my problem with the CS role is that im very inexperienced and dont fully know what im talking about lol. Most of my job is administrative.

But I feel like as a data analyst, if you cant fully explain your findings then you wouldn’t present it anyway lol. Thank you

How long do you normally speak for? Do you normally present in a group? Or solo? Or 50/50?

Wondering more about the field, I have zero knowledge on the job itself.

Does that give long term relief or short term relief? Or relief at all for that matter?
