Does SQL & Python Really Matter In The Schemes Of Data Analysis? by lazynairalander1(op): 12:38pm On Apr 03, 2023
Do not be part of those who believes or say "once you sabi Excel and PowerBI you're a data analyst" πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ€£
Data Analysis has gone past that insinuation, Hiring Managers are out looking for the best available candidate and the more your tools the more your chances of been noticed in a very competitive market as DA.
A saying goes SQL is the meat and potatoes of data analysis, in my years of analysis I have come to understand that Excel and PowerBI will only take you this far but SQL and Python/R will make you stand out.
King grinding and winning!!!

Upgrade your Excel knowledge at least to intermediate level then PowerBI/Tableau and SQL.
This will get you a good data analyst job, while on the job you can add Python to your skillset as it will serve as an added advantage to recruiters and for the senior data analyst position.
