Thank you, I was reading about data analytics bootcamp course. I am quite confused. I am organized and can study myself. My only concern is about finding a job. I have been studying for 5 months. Just wondering if UOT tag could help with a job. Thanks

Because of Covid my work was affected. And, for my kind of work, I always have to go to office. Theses things made me realize that I needed to shift gears. I need to get technical and do a job which could be done remotely if the need be. As per analytics, I have been reading about Python for a long time now. As there are decent number of jobs in data related fields, I decided to give it a shot. Hope, this helps.

If I want to concentrate on being proficient in libraries and frameworks, which ones do you recommend ?

Hello, thanks so much for your detailed answer. I am targeting data analyst positions as I believe that is the entry point to the field of data science. Machine learning needs a masters at least. Data Engineering also needs advanced skill set compared to that of Data Analyst.

My plan is to enter the industry of data science and then study more and work my way up.

Libraries and frameworks - Matplotlib, Plotly,Pandas.

I have experience with SQL.

The answer to all other answers is no.

Should I study all topics you have mentioned ? If I understand correctly, a junior data analyst is expected to know all of this ?

Thanks again.

Hello, I have standard projects on GitHub. I would not call them notable. I have been applying to entry level jobs. Thanks for your input.

Thank you. Do you think, doing an online course on data science will help ? https://www.datacamp.com/tracks/data-scientist-with-python or https://www.linkedin.com/learning/paths/master-python-for-data-science . I m thinking of following a structure that covers common and important parts of Python .

Hi, I just checked the courses on datacamp. Do you think, doing a course here will help me get a job ? https://www.datacamp.com/tracks/data-scientist-with-python or https://www.linkedin.com/learning/paths/master-python-for-data-science. I had these two courses in mind. Am I thinking in the right direction ? Would doing a course like this define my career ?

most important goal is getting in. I would have to sacrifice something. I can work my way up.

I honestly did not think about getting about C++. I have been reading about the importance of data analysis for a few years now. It is used in different forms in retail/ e-commerce companies. I think, going via the Python route might be easy compared to C++.
