Some basic concepts regarding data and database
Data is representation of the facts, measurements, figures, or concepts in a formalized manner having no
specific meaning.
Database is an organized collection of the data stored and can be accessed electronically in a computer system.
DBMS are software systems that enable users to store, retrieve, define and manage data in a database easily.
RDBMS is a type of DBMS that stores data in a row-based table structure which connects related data elements.
SQL is a database query language used for storing and managing data in RDBMS.

Data Analysis is not Power BI.
Data Analysis is not Python.
Data Analysis is not Excel.
Data Analysis is not SQL.
Data Analysis is the silent hero pulling strings behind the curtain to transform raw, unstructured data into meaningful insights.
It's an art form that goes beyond the tools. Perhaps it's time we shift our focus from the tools to the art and science of data analysis itself.

Being analytical is a skill, but it's more of a mindset and a second nature
Focusing on just numbers could be analysis, but doesn't necessarily mean you're analytical. E.g. "Sales dropped in Q1 by 5% as compared to Q1 last year in XYZ Region."
What caused this exactly? Season? Event? Product reviews/quality? Customer service decline? Marketing spend? PR? Supply chain? Stock depletion? Price increase? Rebranding?
Or, when validating the data and understanding the root causes, having a very limited approach. "If that data is missing, it's missing..."
Why is it missing? Is it the source? Is it the business decision to not undertake an activity for a time period? Was it there yesterday? Was it supposed to be there? Who can I talk to for understanding the root cause?
A LOT of business users I know are more analytical than the data people in their teams.
So what makes you analytical?
- It's the questions you ask yourself
- It's the dots you connect
- It's the different avenues you explore
- It's the inferences you make
- It's the bigger picture you look at
It's not just numbers or data.

I hate to tell you this but...
Bootcamps that tell you they can get you a 6-figure data analyst job within 6 weeks (or even 6 months) are lying to you.
Don't focus on the salary that you might get.
Instead, focus on...
- learning the tools
- starting your portfolio
- revamping your resume
- getting active on LinkedIn
- putting the skills into practice
I guarantee you'll be more successful.

Someone asked me today if they need to learn Python & Data Structures to become a data analyst. What's the right time to start applying for data analyst interview?
I think this is the common question which many of the other freshers might think of. So, I think it's better to answer it here for everyone's benefit.
The right time to start applying for data analyst positions depends on a few factors:
1. Skills and Experience: Ensure you have the necessary skills (e.g., SQL, Excel, Python/R, data visualization tools like Power BI or Tableau) and some relevant experience, whether through projects, internships, or previous jobs.
2. Preparation: Make sure your resume and LinkedIn profile are updated, and you have a portfolio showcasing your projects and skills. It's also important to prepare for common interview questions and case studies.
3. Job Market: Pay attention to the job market trends. Certain times of the year, like the beginning and middle of the fiscal year, might have more openings due to budget cycles.
4. Personal Readiness: Consider your current situation, including any existing commitments or obligations. You should be able to dedicate time to the job search process.
Generally, a good time to start applying is around 3-6 months before you aim to start a new job. This gives you ample time to go through the application process, which can include multiple interview rounds and potentially some waiting periods.
Also, if you know SQL & have a decent data portfolio, then you don't need to worry much on Python & Data Structures. It's good if you know these but they are not mandatory. You can still confidently apply for data analyst positions without being an expert in Python or data structures. Focus on highlighting your current skills along with hands-on projects in your resume.
Hope it helps :)

Many people ask this common question βCan I get a job with just SQL and Excel?β or βCan I get a job with just Power BI and Python?β.
The answer to all of those questions is yes.
There are jobs that use only SQL, Tableau, Power BI, Excel, Python, or R or some combination of those.
However, the combination of tools you learn impacts the total number of jobs you are qualified for.
For example, letβs say with just SQL and Excel you are qualified for 10 jobs, but if you add Tableau to that, you are qualified for 50 jobs.
If you have a success rate of landing a job youβre qualified for of 4%, having 5 times as many jobs to go for greatly improves your odds of landing a job.
Does this mean you should go out there and learn every single skill any data analyst job requires?
NO!
Itβs about finding the core tools that many jobs want.
And, in my opinion, those tools are SQL, Excel, and a visualization tool.
With these three tools, you are qualified for the majority of entry level data jobs and many higher level jobs.
So, you can land a job with whatever tools youβre comfortable with.
But if you have the three tools above in your toolbelt, you will have many more jobs to apply for and greatly improve your chances of snagging one.
