If you want free Udemy courses, go on telegram and search UdemyKing Free Courses. Just follow the instructions there. Don't let anyone sell you materials of any type. Even on LinkedIn, I get tons of materials for free. That's what the internet should be used for, learning and educating yourself. Don't try to get too many courses all at once o, you might get banned. Like 5 per day is okay.


Finally, anyone that is really serious about learning should try to join one of these Indian virtual bootcamps. With a laptop, internet, mobile phone, and commitment, you will learn alot. There are free ones available, and the paid ones are not any better than them.

already started my journey into data science, prior before now I had a mentor(my cousin) who is a data scientist in Australia who talked extensively on data science and gave various tools necessary. So I brushed through excel by taking some course like analysing data using excel and other courses on Edx(videos) then currently learning sql using sql server express learnt basics using w3schools and sqlzoo which am done, practicing using ssms and sample database like(adventureworks and northwind) so refreshing. Also I have some PDFs book having questions and problem from beginner to advance on the sample database listed, once am done I will also take some courses on edX. Afterwards would move into python and other tools.


just wanted to share my journey for the past one month. thanks Ejiod and other contributors.

if you are also on this journey into the world of data science quote me, let's relate �

I use search engines a lot that's how I came across this threads by just googling "data scientist journey nairaland " even though I am not a Nigerian. I specifically wanted to know how you got access to these courses for free and nothing more. I actually don't need your contact but since you claimed to have the secrets on how to access these courses for free I thought it wise to ask how one could access them. The information you have provided is enough but I will continue to search for more resources that will suit my needs and make my journey much easier. Thanks again for your reply.

Yours is quite recent. I did my interview since Monday. Sincerely the swiftness with which they contacted me after the test made me think they would get back to me almost immediately after the interview. In fact in the interview mail they sent to me they said the whole founding team sat down to analyze my performance in the test and are pleased with what they are seeing(hope they are not trying to patronize me). So I thought I was already in and the video interview was just a formality.

I wanted to initially but the job ad was strikingly similar to a previous one from amploy.io in May, which ended up being a ruse, moya look away. Did Sofi ask you to open a profile on join.com? Was the video interview 5 questions? Did they use "Hireflix" for the video interview? Did the application test have a question similar to the one in the image below? If the answer to all these questions is 'yes', then best believe a bunch of people somewhere need CVs to train/test their ML model hence the fake openings. I may be wrong though, I hope I am.

Good afternoon guys.

Please I want to know, does it matter where one learnt his skills?

Because most of the courses on Coursera and Edx are curated by world known universities and reputable organizations. While independent tutors sells their courses on Udemy.

Do employers consider this?

How you made use of what you are taught is what really matters and that depends sorely on you .

It is definitely illegal, the amploy.io website is suspect, the "Try it for free" link does not work. I'd bet the said "Phillip" is an imaginary person.
Sofi is a legit American company though, but nothing like "Data Science Intern" in their job openings currently.
My guess is somebody needs CV data but doesn't know how to go about it so he/she came up with this grand scheme to get it on a platter, deviously smart if you ask me.

The only people that will benefit from such data would be Amploy , since their business is recruitment, they probably chose Nigeria for obvious reasons

Good day everyone,
Does anyone here have a background in accounting/finance and have now fully migrated to data analysis ?
I am seriously considering to switch from my Accounting background to learning data analysis that can enable me access opportunities as a finance analyst or data analyst, possibly getting a good remote job or migrating.
Please guys I need suggestions.

Thank you.

Hi, so i gave out my udemy login to a few and for the past two weeks, I have been noticing that someone don't know who has been adding new courses (piano lessons and some other courses to my list of courses). I would really appreciate if you stop doing that please. You are messing with my udemy algorithm that suggest courses for me. Just watch the courses that are available and exit. I do not appreciate it. Thank you.
