Good afternoon everyone and happy Sunday. Please, a friend of mine asked me to help her verify the authenticity of this company, it is based in Lagos. There is an attached picture of her message.
Good Afternoon everyone, please I need someone who can guide me in freelancing with Data Analysis tools. I have some courses on those tools already. Thank you.
Raalsalghul: Start with SQL (Over 95 per cent of Data Analyst roles require this skill). There are many RDBMS you can use to learn but MySQL is the most common.
Then learn Excel with emphasis on (Look-up and Statistics functions, referencing, conditional formatting, power query for cleaning data, pivot tables for summarizing data, power pivot for modelling and then DAX).
Followed by PowerBI or Tableau: you'll use these tools to visualize the results of your SQL queries. I personally prefer PowerBI as it's more robust in function.
People mention Python a lot, but I've seen many Data Analyst vacancies excluding it in their requirements (emphasis on "Data Analyst"). Nonetheless you can add it to your skill set if you want to go the Data Science Route or just for personal development purposes. Learn the basics first and then move on its libraries: Numpy, Pandas, Matplotlib and Seaborn. There's also the Scikit learn library for its machine learning capabilities.
If you can master the first 3, you're job ready: then scale up your knowledge from there.
Yutes: Just going through this thread and noticed that so many comrades who started the {data: [ analysis, science]} journey in 2020 have dropped by the wayside
Ibenny: I'm in need of a couple of writers for a long term job. Students are also welcome.
You will be required to write varieties (but related) topics. You will also need to review products.
Payment is N1-N1.5 per words . Aritcles range from 1000-2500. Payment is weekly. Payment is also likely to increase at the long run.
Work is also constant.
It will be an advantage if you have a grammarly account and have a little known of SEO. Though it's not mandatory (but I will expect you to get a grammarly account after the first week of working as it's takes a lot of stress editing a bad article.)
Note; you will be assigned a paid 150-200 writing task to check your capacity.
Also, please every work will always be checked for plagiarism. If it's your thing, please don't bother applying.
Edit: Thanks to all those that applied.
Hello Ibenny, I came across this post requesting for writers and I'm ready to offer my assistance, I'm sure we can do a good work together. Kindly quote me so we get started.
Stephen0mozzy: I have bought two courses on graphics design, to improve my knowledge, but I'm not being as consistent as I'll like to. Is there anyone here who is interested in learning Graphics Design also? And has also bought the Udemy Graphics Design Course?
Cutezt: Unfortunately, i don't, sorry sir, and about mentoring, i can only drop by to help time by time, i cant closely mentor, please understand, me, but i sure can give instructions and help out with questions.
i will, however, give you a video where you will basically learn almost everything there is to learn about the editing software i use, it is one of the most used in the world,
then you can digest this 4 hours tutorial on video editing, follow it bumper to bumper, learn as much as you can, rewatch over and over again if you have to, for me, i studied video production in school, but I think this video is quite comprehensive for anyone who wants to learn
