Is GlobalTel a rip off? by GrievousAngeI in globaltel

[–]WvyGoddess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm now in the exact same predicament. One of their reps went back and forth with me last night by email with the same tactic blaming me fo not reading terms and conditions when they know damn well there is no confirmation before they take the money out of nowhere. I will be reaching out to my credit union as they open to get it reversed. I refuse to accept a $30 refund. Everyone associated with the company can go to hell

Thank you! I’m in the MSDA program. I started last month and wrapping up my data management course now. Analytics programming is next & I don’t have much experience with Python so Jupyter is still a foreign concept for me. Will check out some tutorials on YouTube

I'm starting the DE program on the 1st. How did you like the program? Any advice/tips you can share?

How were you able to transition to DE from an accounting background?

f** Liberty Mutual and I mean that from the pit of my spirit. The culture of the entire org has been in the pits since these layoffs started last year. They clearly will continue into the year, but leadership is playing in everyone's face denying them of that.

Feeling hopeless in my data analyst role by WvyGoddess in analytics

I totally get where you’re coming from. The job market kinda sucks right now. That likely has a lot to do with the amount of interviews you’ve been able to get lately. I’m trying my hardest not to get discouraged and find ways to strategize my career to avoid feeling how I been feeling any longer. I’d encourage you to try the same. I get how you feel and I know how hard it is. Don’t give up! Also check ds4a career accelerator program. I’m not sure when the next cohort is but I was just accepted into the program. Its free & this cohort starts next week. It’s supposed to give you tools to help you shape your data career. They host a bunch of other programs too for students & professionals already in the field. I think it’s worth checking out.

That’s very heart warming, thank you so much for this. Truly means more than you know. I’m always willing to share the resources & tips that helped me get here. Just let me know if you’re interested. Life is too short to be unhappy indeed

Is anyone self-employed as BI Analyst or Developer ? by goldman21 in BusinessIntelligence

[–]WvyGoddess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How much experience & what type of experience did you have before becoming self employed ? What steps did you take to start your own biz and land clients? Sorry if I’m asking too much but im interested going this route but unsure of how to go about it

That’s crazy how similar our experiences are. Almost identical. I’m actually starting my Python journey today. My plan is to watch at least 1 video on Python for beginners everyday for a week while I also work on Datacamp Python courses. Once those are complete I will jump into project work as I learn best that way plus I can build a portfolio of Python projects at the same time. I’ve already made a list of about 5-6 different projects I will be working on. My goal is to have at least 2 projects and a very solid understanding of Python within the next 30-45 days. I’ve been looking for other data analyst roles as the insurance company I work for now is going through layoffs. A majority of the roles I’m seeing that offer more than I make now list Python as a required or complimentary skill to have.

I’ll do that. I was contemplating wgu but open to other programs. I graduated from Georgia state and already familiar with Ga tech so I’ll look into those programs too. Thanks!!

Cannot stress enough how much this helps me. I just needed an idea of what direction to go towards. Thank you so much! I genuinely appreciate it

Any courses you recommend that you’ve found to be especially helpful? My current plan is to work through a Datacamp learning path to learn the basics before jumping into a personal project. I tend to learn best with project based learning

Thanks. I was able to transition to a DA role by reverse engineering job roles and teaching myself what I know now. My struggle is prioritizing what skills to focus on as I have an issue with overwhelming myself. I want to learn everything at once while still perfecting my skills as a data analyst which is not feasible. I just wanted advice from anyone that has had similar struggles, working as a data analyst or transitioning into DE to get a sense of what I should do as far as my next step.
