Hi for the update, I got the job offer. During the interview I felt quite uneasy and nervous at the start. I was given the company data to work on and provide certain insights. I tried using MySQL to query the data and obtain certain pattern since the data was not clean at all. MYSQL failed me lols, so I ended up using POWERBI to do whole stuff. I have been waiting to share this news untill they get back to me. Thanks you all, I wish us all the very best!

Congratulations man..

TheManOfTheYear:
Gee me too.
But you could check out jobs on YCombinator. Google search it.

A lot of entry level start-ups are listed there with openings. God go do am soon. I believe.

Amen boss... let keep the faith

Ekaka1:
That early goal by the Ghana means a lot to them...they will fight confidently to finish is off or hold on till the end unless we can score another goal in this half...by 2nd half we will be under immense pressure and that may expose us to counter attacks

Goalllll

Vaughanlanrewaj:
Truth will still come out.
Past gory images on twitter have turned out to be fake.
I believe she has a family and one should expect to hear from them by now.

This should not be another lekkilies where suddenly all those reportedly killed turned out alive or having no relatives come out to state that any of their relative missing or dead.
Never again will we allow twitter be used to peddle fake news and hate news.

Her family should please speak up. Twitter is not her family or family compound.

Those speaking ill of Nigeria because they hate Buhari will reap what they sow.

If you sow good in Nigeria, good you will reap and if you sow curses, curses and badluck you will eventually reap from Nigeria. Nigeria will never bless you and whatever you sow in Nigeria will wilt and die.

I don’t know your age or who you are. But no matter how wise you think you are, How knowledgeable you think you are, even at instance where other people’s story don’t make sense to you, please learn how not to judge people. May God not test you with situations beyond your power...
You wouldn’t be writing this as human..

Bro how is search so far... any green lights yet?..
Have been applying too, but I barely see Nigeria company job advert on indeed and LinkedIn...

extroveee:
Another business you can do here in the North is charcoal business, it's very lucrative

Can you elaborate more on this charcoals. Or can I chart you up?

Ithream:
Good morning Everyone

Please I'd like to know how I can crop out or possibly download/Copy my Visuals In a report/Dashboard from my Power Bi to my Power point as images without making use of the Power Bi service log in?

Why I ask is that, I want to present it but I don't know what to do. Pleas help.

You can use snipping tool(search for it on windows) , or screen shots(Press windows key + ptr scr button )

Teophilus96:


Definitely. But believe me you'll still need Python (some librariesor) or Maybe R if you really don't want to be found lacking.

Best of luck on your interview tomorrow bro... do update

Ejiod:

Indeed
LinkedIn
Referral from friends

Thanks you for the info..

Hey guys, just a short motivation for some1 out there, I remember coming here early last year to find out full details needed to join uber and bolt with my hybrid pruis, (majority said it was risky and all, cos of the cost of maintaining the hybrid), anyway the onus of the post is to encourage everybody out there to have a primary focus on something more long term rewarding aside this hustle. I picked up courses online and everyday I read btw 4am-7am before entering the streets to pick up passengers, by the end of 2021 I did two certifications and started applying online, all these while I was still on e-hailing hustling and VIO showing me pepper.
To cut the long story short I am currently working abroad as a data analyst based on my 1year focus on online courses. Last night a close friend of mine that joined the uber platform thru me also got his first job interview (praying he scales thru) .
In conclusion PLS HAVE A SIDE GOAL AND DO SOMETHING EVERYDAY THAT TAKES YOU CLOSER TO THAT GOAL ( LET THE UBER HUSTLE BE A TRANSIT THING).. have a great week

Congratulations

Thanks bro. I am rounding up data analysis in excel. Got my materials from utube. Is the next step power BI or Tableau? . I would prefer power BI. Is it power BI and Tableau? Does one substitute the other
.

Kudos sis, yeah, you can move on to powerbi now..

Czsamanie:
Hello. Do you have any material/video on the Power Bi? The ones I have been watching aren't really engaging.

Something like Excelisfun ... Any recommendation?

Are you familiar with excel before moving to power bi? It will be a lot easier that way, I think. But nevertheless you can study power bi if that’s what you want...

You can search Simplylearn powerbi on YouTube.. the team did a video of about 6 hours long.. it can take your from zero to hero... also if you need material. You can find material on guru.com, javatpoint.com or tutorialpoint.com, simply type powerbi and name of any these Site on google

Kudos brother..

Checking the url of each topic, I noticed they fellow different pattern( unlike some web where you can easily loop through multiple pages with range of page numbers to perform the scraping )...

My question is, do you manually copied all the url link you scraped or there is a way you go about it?

morgang:
Hi guys, please don’t be deterred with the current job prospects of being a Data scientist/analyst. I’m also new to this but I’m quite positive. While you’re getting the skills, look for other avenues to leave the country.

I’m in the U.S doing my Masters in a different field and I can guarantee you that the demand for data analysts are always endless. No knowledge is a waste. We’ll get there someday!


Please, if you’re very good in data analysis, I will appreciate your mentorship. Currently in my last phase in Tableau, I hope to advance to Python next week. I’m also stuck with Tableau project (I enrolled with Simplilearn boot camp) and I need help!

I’d appreciate anyone reaching out.

Thanks

In what Aspects of Tableau are you stuck in?.. or is that you need more data for practicing?

wonyi:


Thanks brother.

Do you consider learning data analysis in EXCEL a waste of time for a beginner?

No.. it part of the requirement along side with power bi/ tableau and sql...

wonyi:



Thanks. I like the way you outlined the courses. Thanks once more. Please share if u have materials or suggest sites I can download from for free. It seems there's no free course online except on utube.

Will I get the worth of my money when I buy courses from UDEMY/CORSERA/EDX?

YouTube and blogs Will be enough I think. What I often do whenever I want to learn a new topic is that, I will first watch a YouTube video to get familiar with the topic (Note that YouTube video will only give the basic knowledge ) then go further to read different articles( 2 or more sometime) for deeper knowledge...

Give me sometime, I will list out some site and video I think it might help

wonyi:

Best regards to everyone

Sorry for the lost bro..

wonyi:



Thanks I really appreciate. I graduated as a Chemical Engineer.you have gone very far.


You have been studying all by yourself?

Please recommend study centres in Port Harcourt. Studying by myself may not be possible. A lady with kids, so I need a tutor to guide me. I have downloaded a lot of materials but would appreciate an aggressive tutor that knows his onion.


What is your opinion about NIIT/APTECH?

What are my chances of getting a job as a data analyst / data scientist?

Chances of getting a job? Truth is, I can’t really tell you, I started this journey last year April, somehow I think I may be ready for job, but yet have never put in for any.. taking my time to build by portfolio maybe till end of March before I started putting in. Though, a lot of negative and positive opinion online about getting job as data scientist but what I always tell myself is No work is easy to come by.. the world is saturated, arguably!.. But having that skill make you a step ahead... When are good in it and with patient God will unfold better things.

With your gender and your background, you have an upper hand... just give yourself range of time and decide on what to learn.. but please note You can’t learn data science within 6 month as been advertised online.. not because it too hard but there are many things to learn. Excel, sql. Power bi, Tableau, Python, machine learning, deep learning and so on

I will suggest you go for data analysis maybe with vision of becoming Data scientist afterward, with vigorous learning I bet you will be ready within six months

If you want to go for data analysis, just focus on excel, power bi/tableau and MySQL

About where to learn, I can’t really say, maybe other people can make a suggestion for you.

What material have you gotten so far and what is your experience learning?

FERNANDEZISBACK:

You think it's about detesting it?
Nah it's about critical thinking..you have to look beyond what was written by some folks whose motive was to bond and control your way of life..
This ain't bout myself it's all about the fact that people Still believe that there is something up there who cares about you..

And you can prove to me with your fact/finding that is there is nothing such of him

Do you once believe in him, or you’ve know your fact from onset?

FERNANDEZISBACK:

Why not?

Your post always Sounds like someone that once believe and has hope in God, Like Someone that has put all the faith and want something in return but got disappointed in the end. Or lost something so dearest while you believe God can sort It.. I don’t know if am right but you don’t sound like someone that detest God from the start. Can you share your experience please, maybe privately.. please note am not here to preach, just an idealist

FERNANDEZISBACK:

The same Jesus that is watching him suffer?
That Jesus must be a weirdo..

I been following your post lately.. please can we talk?

wonyi:


Congratulations on the purchase of your car. I am in Port Harcourt. Made enquiries at NIIT. THE MONEY LONG O. they said I will be trained as a data analyst.



Family, what is the difference between a data analyst and a data scientist?

To make it simple without technical words... Data analysis is just a branch of Data science. As a data Analytist,
You will collect datas from different sources, then put it in a right format by cleaning, dealing the missing values..(this look simple in writings, but this where Data Analytist spend like 70% of your time).. after making your data cleaned. Then you tell a story with the data by visualization ( take for instance, with a retail company dataset, you can tell a story of how much they make in a current year compared to previous year, what Item sold most, behavior of their customers toward the company..and so on.. with this story you can draw an insight of area the company should improve on, and the kind relationship(Marketing) they should build with their customers.

With above information, then a data scientist can go further to build a different kind of model with the dataset data analysts has cleaned, he/she can build a model to cluster the customers, can model a model to predict the future sales, can build a model to predict the products that are likely to make high purchase in years to come. And lot more....

So, in short, a data scientist can be a Data Analytist but a Data Analytist can not be a Data scientist

About learning Data Analysis or Data science If you really mean Business(well discipline) and hold any certifications related to statistics, engineering, computer science or any related courses, I will advise you to do self education(With right steps to fellow, internet is more than enough as your school), because most of the advanced things you will be needing has to be source by yourself, the schools and courses will only provides the basic knowledge( maybe build a simple regression model) and the job is not just about building a model. It about how robotic the model is...

Atiku as vise President sold national asset to himself.

Tinubu as governor of Lagos refused to vacate, he is still indirectly ruling uptill now. His son is controlling revenue collection in Lagos.

These are people we want to handover the destiny of Nigeria to. The youth of this country is the major problem in these country.

God'swill Akpabio is the right man for this job

I don’t know talk politics and I do politics. personalities checked, I don’t see good(don’t let me use best) fit between two of them... Aside the two of them, rounding the circle of Nigeria PoliticIan’s, I can’t see any one with love of the Nation. All of them are just there for the money and the power. Imagine the cries and the tears Bubu shed before he became president, acting like the one will needed, look at the outcome now.

Those shouting GLMR should be careful pls.. nvr buy coin on the day it listed on exchange... all those pumps are all robotic trade... if you want to get a true picture go and check one minute chat..
