I wish this video had come out two weeks ago! I had a referral for a Data Analyst job and the COO was super impressed with my LinkedIn and resume that I ended up skipping the screening and first interview and went to directly to interviewing the analytics team and COO. I got a quick response to my follow-up email and now am waiting for their decision!
Congratulations🎉Can you please send me your resume for my reference, would be a great help
I received a position as a paid intern at AON. If you are entry level and have no experience this is the way to go. I finished the Google Data Analytics certification and applied for the internship. So if you can get in school take a class and go to a career counselor you have a great chance to get a job as a Data Analyst. Also, ask me any questions if you want. 😊
All you had was the google certificate? Did you have any additional background in CS/etc.? What do you think made your resume stand out?
@@RyanTaylorMedia let me explain the whole process. I received an email in my student email about the internship. I answered and later applied to the position. I have no other certificates (other than my high school diploma) nor CS skills. To be honest the certificate was what pushed my over the finish line in respect to getting the position.
Alex The Great
I completed your data analyst bootcamp men and I just loved it. Big confidence boost up for me. You are a good Human being along with a good teacher. May God bless you 🙏
This was an incredibly helpful video that came out at the perfect time. I did a prescreen last week and this afternoon I have an interview with the data team lead and the CTO and to tell you I am nervous would be a massive understatement. Thank you, Alex!
good luck!
Good luck!!
Good luck!
How did it go
@@ryandirajlal2855 unfortunately the job search continues
That is exactly what hiring managers do (caveat: n=1!). At my last company, I'd moved to another team but still kept in touch with the original team I started with because I liked them. You could always be pretty confident that anybody they hired would be just like the supervisor who did the interviewing (there were multiple teams on the larger team and the different supervisors had very different personalities 😂). I understand the psychology at play; however, frankly I'm more put off by that kind of thing than people wanting to hire people that want to do the job. To be clear, I'm not particularly put off by either, but if I had to pick one practice I liked less, it would be the former. Mostly mentioning this because I got the impression that you were more "apologetic" (for lack of a better word) for the latter. I could be mistaken though!
Anyway, that's a good point about the recruiter screening being a good indicator of what the hiring manager interview might be like. I hadn't quite conceptualized it like that before but it makes sense. :D
Great share Alex! I love the point about knowing something about the company beyond the surface level. I've found that it's a good move to look up if the company is in the news (hopefully not for anything bad...) but see if they have any new tech innovations to talk about, merger with another company, etc. Then you can carry that forward to the "Do you have any questions for me?" and ask about what the company is doing.
Any other recommendations for the Interviewee Questions phase?
As a petroleum engineering graduate, it's really hard to get a job in this field, It's almost a year that I've been trying to shift into data analytics my only experience with those tools that you've mentioned is based on the projects related to my domain, and still haven't got any response, what can I do to be qualified?
Really love this video!!! So insightful and helpful, thank you so much!
What about doing a video tailored specifically towards the seniority of the position?? Like what are hiring managers looking for an entry level job vs a junior and a senior level role? I would love a more specific breakdown.
a positive personality with a motivated mindset, good notes to remember on top of all the other technical requirements that come with the position! passion too!
Just rewatched this video. I have an interview tomorrow morning with a hiring manager at a healthcare company for an entry level analyst position, and this video helped my nerves a bit. The recruiter messaged me on LinkedIn with a couple screening questions after I submitted my application, and then scheduled me for the interview after I responded with my answers. I feel lucky so far as over 500 people have applied.
Now thanks to this video, I’m more excited than I am anxious for tomorrow!
Good luck! Hope you hear some good news soon!
@@AlexTheAnalyst it went so well! The entire interview lasted an hour and genuinely felt more like a conversation with somebody that I know, because we were laughing together and were able to relate on certain things. At the end of the interview, she told me I’m moving on to a panel interview! Super excited for this potential opportunity, thank you for all of your resources Alex. Couldn’t have made it this far without your help
I believe a lot in the last topic, every time I went through an interview I noticed that the final decision was due to my enthusiasm, because I don't even have higher education in the area. I'm a BI analyst.
If you are a 'boring' reserved introverted indoor person with a stutter who gets the job done...look elsewhere. Btw, what do you mean by boring? Like boring people are not interested in the work they are supposed to do? Then of course they should not get the job. But if it has to do with other extroverted stuff not related to the job, like going out to drink beer...then that's cruel to reject someone for that.
Hello Alex. I hope you are doing great. I started self-studying about 10 days ago with you and I'm about to finish the first Udemy course you suggested. I bought the Udemy courses you suggested. It's going reasonably well so far. Although it's not exactly your area, I would like to hear your thoughts about IIBA's Business Analysis certifications such as ECBA which is for entry-level positions. Do you think it might help people who have no background to get some more interviews?
For those of us just getting started with little to no college experience, and only courses under our belts. How could we stand out to get into those first interviews? Personally, I feel like I'm cold calling sending in applications and connecting on linked in. Where are the "hot leads" for entry level positions? I know a comment section may not be the best place to be asking a question like this but any insight from anyone would be helpful.
Sir I have a good offer If In request to postpone , then will the company give my offer to backup candidate
i reached out to 15 different people between 3 different companies, one 1 wrote back and none were willing to help.. lol job market is a joke...12 years experience in my field and cant even get an interview...
The video was a bit too vague and beating around the bush, telling us stuff we already knew/ was obvious.
Wish it was more information dense
Everyone in comments section competing against one another, may the best prospect succeed as a result of the work done.
omg this will help me a lot as i have interview scheduled....❤❤❤
Thank you so much.
This is really informative and helpful.
Educative🙌🙌 this is why you are my favorite. Thank you
I juat amde the decision to become a Data Analyst and i feel like a grain of rice losr in the dessert.. hiw do i join yiur biitcamp please
Alex, I am a bit introverted, so I take time to get to know people and later I mix up with the team, so is it difficult to get selected in a job interview?
Yes, but it helps to try to be outgoing the best you can when first interviewing :)
Hi Alex. This is Harathi from India. I completed My MTech in computer sciences in 2016 . After my education, I have a gap because of my family reasons. Now, I want to restart my career. Is there any possible to get a Data analyst job role? I learnt Mysql. now I am learning Python.
good stuff being mentioned but totally untrue in reality for me. First of all, probably most of job postings are fake because I have got more than 300 automated emails rejecting me in the past 8 months with the same exact email format. Second, I got quizzes and tests, I got interviews with HR and then proceed to more interviews with senior people. One was for a tableau junior entry. Even though I am not an expert in tableau I would like to work more on that and I also saw the company as an opportunity to open doors for data career as they were also very open about this. I did okish with the tableau technical question interview, I didn't answer some steps when I was asked to create multiple visualizations on the fly. However, the tableau expert said it was fine and I might need some further training. Then, they arranged another interview with data scientists. Even though the job was for entry tableau, I got asked about python, ML, NLP and other data science questions. I only didn't answer 1-2 questions, but I was super motivated and asked about what they particularly do and stuff like this. I also asked them if there is flexibility in the company to change positions say to more data engineering (the interview was more focused in this at that time) and I also mentioned that I have taken course in ML and this direction, and they were even not familiar with MLops.
But I still got rejected. After 3 interviews and tests. And this took more than 2 months. Just a waste of my time and energy.
After all this I have no idea how I can even get an entry role. I can't believe that they always find a better fit than me. Unless they are looking for someone who doesn't know anything and just finished college with no portfolio, because apparently I always see people in companies who take training or don't know any of the basics. How did they even get the job? I have friends who didn't take any data science course or knew anything 1 year ago but got a data science job because they knew someone from the company. In the past month, I have not applied to any job. It is so disappointing. Must be something in my face and voice that they don't like, even though I feel like I am super friendly to them and they also seem friendly to me, but they somehow reject me after the interviews.
but what about the degree? If I don't have it, but for example I have in portfolio 3 projects ready to see how I work and how I understand coding without experience ,how is then the situation ? they will gonna skip me ? it's like 99.9% that everybody is looking with minimum Master degree. Thank you for your answer
This video was uploaded while I was in the middle of an interview. I think the interview went well nonetheless, but the help would have been nice.
I'm Turkish and I live in Turkey. Is it possible to apply for remote jobs in America? Do they accept foreigners?
Thank you very much Alex, for sharing your thoughts on the hiring manager from this perspective. It is very helpful!!
Hi Alex! I rlly wonder to know ur opinion about the new Comptia Data+ certification as a plus to get a DA job. =)
Wow! Thank you so much, well said! preparing myself for a job application this time; a career shifter from a housewife : )
You are the most positive, happy person. When you did those skits with the other influencers, it was kind of scary. It was like "Dark Alex"...haha
Pleas Mr Alex can you give me online lesson I Am in Iraq and there are no internships here
Whats a working hours data analyst do ? 8h a day, or you can do less? 🙂
I have an interview in the coming days, wish me luck guys
Great stuff Alex. In your experience with hiring how important or impactful were references? I agree people usually respond better to other people they connect with but could that change dramatically based on feedback from references?
If it's a good reference it can make all the difference! If someone I trust and know highly recommends someone that puts them at the top of my list.
Do every company use a recruiter or typically upper echelon companies? Or is it random?
Somewhat random? I worked for small companies that used recruiters and mid size where they didn't.
This is just so awesome, thank you so much for everything you do Alex! You’re the 💣
Thank you for this vital info...
Thank you Alex! Do you think technical interviews or take home exams are common for data analysts, especially for entry level roles?
Very common and important to be ready for
🤣 'Promo sm'
Thats beneficial thank you!❤️
I appreciate all the help you give us.
Absolutely! Thank you for supporting the channel! 😁
Thank you for all you do Alex.❤
I dont know about some people but being a down person is directly tied to the lack of success unfortunately.
Though as a more shy, introverted person I do a lot better with in-person interview, I am horrible at online interviews.
Hiring managers are looking for AI for now on! All those complicated procedures to hire people will disappear, as humans commit mistakes and we aren't perfect enough to fill all the requirements for a job position. Previous experiences are mandatory and all of them created by humanity could be delivered by AI in a few seconds. It is only the reality!
Are you sure about that people are saying its only the recession that have affected the job market. The AI is just keeping on throwing bugs and errors.
@29ibrahimsayed95 Trustworthy magazines are informing the preferences of those hiring managers! One year ago, data analysts would have been considered the 'sexiest profession of the century,' and now AI is taking over this role. Things are changing very fast! The recession may increase, as people will loose their jobs for AI and AI won't be able to deliver more productivity, as people won't have enough money to consume in a very long term. The humanity is self destroying!
Oh honey
