DATA NERDS! What project are you currently working on for your portfolio (or job)?
I'll go first... pulling job data, doing some analysis on said-data, and then designing a dashboard that will be usable by others to find useful insights into jobs availability in the field of Data Analytics! video on this coming soon(ish)
I'm not currently working on it, but I'm about to start a computation of R_t for Covid19.
@@leoregino Heck yeah, this sounds interesting!!
@@johnhua1 Wow! Did you publish your work somewhere? I would like to know more!
@@johnhua1 THis projects sounds awesome! Congrats on getting to the trianiing stage and good luck!
This is actually really useful. I am currently doing a great deal of training and starting to scope my portfolio projects but struggled to find an answer to what Hiring Managers actually want to see. I know all will approach it slightly differently but this is great to use as a structure. Thanks Luke and John.
Jack, thank so much for the kind words my dude!! Glad it could be of help!
This is really good advice for Web and Software developers too. Thanks for sharing! I got some cool stuff to add to my portfolio from this interview. Thanks!
I didn't even think about this being applied in other fields.. Thanks for this and glad I could help!
Excellent video Luke! Really useful for those looking to switch to a data science role.
Awe thanks Sukhman! Appreciate the kind words and glad it could be of help!
Excellent video! Highly recommend everyone not just to do projects for jobs but for their own learning experience. At the beginning of this year I wanted to learn to build apps in Shiny and ended up building one to predict how long it will take to learn a piano piece based on its difficulty, length, genre, etc. This was possible because I compiled over 1,200 hours of practice (by piece) in the last 3-4 years so thought Id make use of it. It also taught me how to use APIs to get that data which the titanic dataset doesn’t really teach so yet another point for personal projects😅 Not only that this was always a topic when I interviewed for DS roles but I also submitted it to the R Studio annual contest and won a notable mention. This is not the grand prize or anything but I was competing against full time shiny developers as someone that learnt this on the side for a couple months so was pretty proud of myself lol
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing this Peter!!
I just discovered this channel now and I want to watch more and more videos from it 😅 thanks a lot for this quality of work! 👏
Aww thanks Sarah so much for the kind words!
Hey Luke, I recently found your channel and I love your content. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much for tuning in Collin! I appreciate the SUB!
Very nice and informative video that clearly outlines how should one go about building your data science portfolio. Thanks for sharing !!
Glad it was helpful, Manish!!! No problem at all!
This is very very insightful and will become the skeleton of what I will include in my project coming from a finance background.
Loved this. I am happy that I have done atleast 50% of what's been told in this video.
Heck yeah! Sounds like you're on a good path!!
that was very helpful, people can focus more on what's really important, your work is really appreciated, many thanks!
Thanks so much for this Qais, glad it could be of help!
These are really good insghts. I will come back as soon as I am at the point to apply for a data science job. Thanks!
Heck yeah, thanks for the kind words Peter!
Thank you for all the help with your videos. It's really useful!!!
Thanks so muchf for this hcg!
You never disappoint with your contents, thanks so much Luke! And to your friend too :)
Aw thanks for this Kay! 🙌🏼
Great insights Luke. Thank you
Thanks Chetan!!
super helpful for an aspiring "data professional"! (Data analyst or Data scientist or Data engineer, TBD) Thank you!
All of these!! Thanks for this Eric!!
Amazing video!!
Such great insight! I am currently halfway through my Google Data Analytics Certificate so this is just extremely helpful to prepare for the road ahead.
Thanks Luke and John🙌🏽
Thanks for watching and for the kind words Naek!
Wow!, great video! i will need to spend time on my portfolio soon :). Thx Luke!

You are changing our lives!! These advices are on a different level.. thank you so much
You're so welcome!

Aw thanks!!!
Great content, amigo ! Thanks for the insights.
Thanks so much for this Leonardo!
Apart from the top notch content...kudos to your presentation skills Luke my man🌟
My dude, thanks for the kind words... I may like making TH-cam videos more than data science itself ... 😜
Brilliant. This is valuable. Thank you 🙏🏾
Glad it was helpful, Dumisa!!
Hey Luke,
Thanks so much for this video it was really helpful for a self learner like me.
Heck yeah, keep up the self-development Kshitij!
Those portfolio examples look pretty hefty!
😂 Thanks Dave
This is highlyyyy greaaat! Loveed it!
Awe heck yeah! It was all John!
Thanks for the helpful video Luke. Keep up the good work!
Awe thanks Jack! This helps with the motivation!
Amazing useful video! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Luke! 😊🙏🏼
Thanks for watching!!!
Thanks a lot for this explanation. I had applied to jobs but wasn’t getting any return calls. This video will definitely make a difference in that regard
Awe thanks Prakhar! I hope this helps with better shaping your portfolio.
@@iamsantanubanerjee Sure, I don’t mind teaming up. I’m currently looking for a new job, as my current job cam be summarised by too much work for not enough pay. How about setting up a meeting on the weekend with Google Meet??
@@iamsantanubanerjee Well, I was about to send a link, but I don’t have your email, and there’s no direct chat function here. Do you have a Reddit or a LinkedIn account??
Very Informative video, Thanks
Thanks so much for this!!
Loved your videos!
Awe thanks so much for this Tien!
Super cool video, thank you.
Awe thanks for this!!
Insightful!!👍🏻
Thank you!
thanks for this video. very inspiring
Heck yeah! Glad you enjoyed Vitor!
Great video. Thank you
Glad you liked it!
This is so helpful!
Thank you Subiksha!!
I am a business analyst with 6+ years experience and I am interested in becoming a remote data analyst. I constantly use SQL and work with data in my job, but the data is highly confidential so I cannot share it (I work in a government position - law enforcement). This is also the only professional job I've had, so do you agree that it makes sense to do data analysis projects on my own to add to my portfolio, or can I simply state the various accomplishments I have made in my current job? Another question I have is what is a good company or field to work in remotely? Guess that depends on my interests, but I am open to expanding those.
Amazing content! You got a new follower :)
Heck yeah, thanks Suelen!
Yo this was actually a really good and well detailed video. Very useful for sure! Could you explain a bit more though about "product"? Like maybe give another example or 2 of what a product could be?
Yeah, more content coming on this soon actually, so stay tuned! Overall though product is something that could potentially be used by others and/or is influenced by others to make. Something beyond a tool that is used solely for your own use.
@@LukeBarousse thanks bro love you!
Thank you so much for this!! Quite useful. What would be some general projects to include in your portfolio? (Say I don’t know whether to apply for cyber security roles or healthcare ones, should I have two products?)
Thanks so much!! This is a great question. For one i'd aim for projects that are aligned with your passion. From there I'd strive to atleast aim to build a "Data Story" with this passion project so you can show recruiters you could generalize your skills in either of these domains that you mentioned.
Very informative and inspiring video
Thanks so much for this!!
Great video!!!
Awe thanks Braghadesh!!
Insightful
Awe thanks Anish!!!
Hey Luke, great content as always... which EdX courses (related to data and/or statistics( would you recommend?
Hey my dude! I haven't taken any EdX courses. I only recommend courses that I"ve taken (and feel add value), so check some of my recommended ones out in the description!
Luke my fav youtuber, stupid youtube bell button failed to work, totally missed your last 2 videos. And congratulations on 75k subscribers, 100k is so close. Lets goooo
Sai, my dude!!! Thanks for the kind words!!
Not gonna lie, I've been wondering where you were at! haha Probably need to start making my thumbnails more recognizable!
@@LukeBarousse hahaha plaster that panda all over the thumbnail
@@saimadhusudanan I've been trying to sneak it into the thumbnails. 🤣
I am very overwhelmed. I hope I make it through though
You got this Kent. Take it one step at a time!
Im gonna go start making my portfolio now. 😏💯
Heck yeah! Like that attitude!
Confident I'd say 😉 ,that's a 90% makes your hiring manager think twise and the rest of 10% is about how talented you are
Can you make some review videos on the data camp courses you recommend??
It's like you read my mind! More coming on this soon!
i have been collecting data of my sets at the gym. i have made a notebook for it. i might end up making a data story for it.
Heck yeah!! I highly encourage this as it would be a very impactful project to showcase!
Amazing
ThanksAhmad!
Getting to the pointy end of my Master of Data Science and going to have to create a portfolio. I'm thinking over the summer (Australian) would be a great chance to deploy a github.
There is no time like now to start! I think it's a fantastic idea!!
Having a github helped hugely in landing me my job, even though I only had 2 class projects on it.
@@karstencollins6966 oh right on! Thanks for the encouragement :)
@@karstencollins6966 This is awesome to know, thanks for sharing Karsten
Hi Luke, thanks for all your hard work motivating and informing all us #JuniorDataNerds ! Somewhere among your videos you mentioned resources for creating portfolio website (or was it creating a personal , professional page for data analytics?). Heck, it could even be this video, (and if so, I guess I'm the goober) but now I can't find it, so was hoping you could point me (again) to your recommendations, or prepare a video on making your own page.
I am just starting my data analyst journey (as can be seen from my earlier dorky comments) and want to prepare just such a webpage to show off where I am coming from, where I am, and where I am going, professionally speaking. I want to make it as comprehensive as possible. Thanks.
yeah, ok. Only after this comment and starting another one of your videos did I find what I was looking for at the bottom of the description . sheesh. sowwy
No worries at all! I more appreciate that you took the time to look for it 🙌🏼 thank you for this, ha! Keep up the studies Michael!
Unfortunately thats not how it works in my country. We apply using system. But the system itself will divide you into categories what jobs you can apply base on your education level and what is your education background
What country are you in?
Could you make this vedio as a podcast (like the whole intraction)
Let me see what I can do on this Ravi!
Can anyone suggest some good sql portfolio projects?
I don't have many recommendations for SQL, hopefully someone in teh comments here can help you!
First viewer 😊
Love from #Bangladesh
Awe thanks Saidur!!
Do you have a link to Jack Raleigh's Excel spreadsheet?
Ha! Sorry I don't!
@@LukeBarousse I was wanting it for my FF Drafts coming up! LOL.
@@nctarheel0619 hahah! I understand the pain
Do you think is possible to find a remote job as a data analyst if I am in another country (not USA)
Looking at linkedin recently there are a lot of job opportunities for remote data analyst inside and out of the US. So yes, I do!
@@LukeBarousse Very good to knko whtat. That might be a good video, how to find remote jobs
How does we show the project in our workplace? Assuming the data is not shareable and data visualization is not possible to be shown too
What do you mean "in our workplace"? If you're saying that you have confidential projects, you can share at a high-level what you have done with these projects. Obviously you can't show what the dashboard looks like (or the data), BUT you could at least describe what tools you used and what processes as well. this still is HIGHLY valuable to share
@@LukeBarousse thanks Luke for the tips, now I know how to share the project in the workplace in our resume properly
Is this applicable to business analyst?
Yeah I feel so as they fall in the spectrum of data science!
Hello,sir. Currently I am doing Google data Analytics course and successfully completed 4 courses out of 8. So, which step should I take after completing this full course in case of building a good portfolio.
i’m not a data analyst but i just completed the cert and rn in building my portfolio website and gonna do a couple guided projects
@@aw_shucks17 Tnx for the reply brother.Would you kindly inform me how many programming languages you need to build your portfolio ?
@aycaniwaterfall thanks for sharing this!!
Focus on the courses for now. When. you get to the final course (the capstone) thats when I'd start giving more effort into how you want to design your first portfolio project. I'd aim to create a project that is either a scoped skill(s) or some sort of storyline to start!
@@LukeBarousse It's a pleasure for me that you give such a good advice. Thanks a lot for the support. 💖
Would you think that projects from an MSc would be suitable for the portfolio Or is that a cop out ? Thought it might be interesting to show the improvement over time.
I’ve done quite a few cool ML projects from classifications model comparison, of course a variety of regressions but most interestingly, a fine grained image classification model
Built from scratch (although it’s accuracy is only 25% lol).
I think they definitely count. Use what you have, but I highly recommend making something more focused that you can show how you generated value with your skills!
@@LukeBarousse cool, I’ve got quite a few projects to share but they’re all mostly ML related. Working on an NLP problem at the moment. Think I’ll just post those since ML is the path I wish to walk. Cheers mate
Ask about google data analyst certificate so you can help us
This is a great question
do people really say "d-shango" for django?
I may pronounce it a little weird... hahah
I'm in the comments just for this one :)
Good resume means nothing if you can't pass the first round coding challenge.
Agree!! It's only one aspect... But getting noticed for the first round is sometimes the hardest part!
It's just pronounced jango the d is silent. Dont want anyone having an awkward moment in their interview when they say da-jango and the interviewer corrects them.
Thanks Batman! I just like pronouncing the D
Tai Lopez? 🤣
Who Dat?
it’s pronounced data not data
Data 🤣
Brroooooo, chemical engineering is 'engineering' in the same way that data engineering is 'engineering'... Sure, you're technically engineering things, but you probably have a VASTLY different set of skills to, say, a mechanical engineer, or even each other...
I'm 19 and been doing my internship as a Big Data Engineer but shifting towards DS as I been making projects on my domain! @luke and @AlexTheAnalyst are the blessing in the disguise for me!
I just had got a certificate of Google's DATA ANALYTICS PROFESSIONAL!
Thanks sir!
Heck yeah! This is so awesome to hear Hari! You are super motivated for your age, I wish I would have been that proactive at 19, keep it up!
