Insights on career paths for aspiring analysts in the UK. Data analytics is gaining ground rapidly in the IT world. Your remit would be to produce dependable business insights, metrics, bus. intelligence, and easily understandable dashboards to mostly senior management. Look into learning tools like PowerBI, Tableau and if possible SAP Business Objects. Some knowledge of SQL will not go amiss.
Even in computing, you generate structured and unstructured data every second, people need to analyse it. There are data lakes, databases and data warehouses everywhere now where insights and reports need to be generated. So, this is not going anywhere. It has been established that we have more connected devices accessing various social media platforms, APIs & microservices generating humoguous volume of data in petabyte scale upon which some form of intelligence is required. In fact, all the fintechs, startups, banks, telecoms every area rely on data to function. See, some data analysts are even providing Boris with information everyday on Covid19. I don't think there are well known certifications for this area of specialisation except to be very proficient and be able to demonstrate it. Covid has impacted most field of study but in my humble opinion, this going to grow bigger and bigger. Data is the new gold! It's a generic advice which I use to guide people close to me. UK is very work focus and less of education for a lot of sector however it good to have the MSC to use as stepping stone into the country. Now start to build your resume. Look at the internet to see if you can find people in that industry cv or resume. It would give you an idea of the skills set . If you can find at least 10.do not plagiarized but use it as a guide. It would give you insight into INDUSTRY skills or software u need to learn.
Then try to build yourself up toward those skills. If you have such relevant work experience great. If you dont then start learning it and practise them . Use your master year to really build yourself up on whats expected in the industry. Then sit and write that Cv......Offcourse it only what you can defend or articulate that put down . Doing a good cv will get you to front of the house, selling yourself well will get u inside the house and most importantly delivering with keep you in the house. So dont play with those 3.
A lot can be self development if you dont have the skills from Nigeria...... That is still sellable (self developed skills it's all how you can articulate it on cv and in an interview) . For IT the regular jobsite such as jobsite, jobserve etc usually is enough. Jobs are posted and you just keep applying. A good CV will usually get a call back so that Cv has to be on point. Good luck as you embark on this journey.

I do understand what you mean. Concerning computing, what I have noticed so far is that even after offering the course it's not as broad as you say as most times, for example in my school, those students have to select optional modules to tailor their course work to their heart desire as the number of modules can't exceed 8. Not that they get to know it all. I guess this is where obtaining certifications for various skills and domain comes in. Thanks again. Aphrodite007:
I assure you, I know it’s going nowhere. I’m just saying don’t put yourself in a box.
People that made compact discs also thought it was going nowhere. Network engineers thought Networking was the new diamond, physical server providers thought same, the same way Project managers thought they were the new hotcakes. Now the new thing with data is reading states rather than value. Things change. Be agile.
Btw a small company is likely to employ a computing graduate than a data graduate, just so they feel safe that the person can do more than data.
As for certs, proving that you have python, r, and basic sql knowledge is enough. 1 Like |

Thank you for your advice. I will collate these posts and post there now. Aphrodite007:
Very good advice. It’s literally what I tell my mentees. I tell them to Look at a job spec of their dream job and build themselves to the point that they can tick all of them off.
I’m also happy that you pointed out that UK doesn’t care about degrees.
If I could advise this person, it will be that they should change that course to computing because data is too narrow. Computing gives the opportunity to be anything, provided they certify! The world changes every day, the last thing anyone wants is to be stuck in Data when a new thing comes and replaces Data.
Hebraeem, please post this in the student section, if you’re from there. So students stop limiting themselves.

Hi, I just got back on here. Thank you for the advice. I am a novice myself who switched career path, that's why I have been adamant on connecting with someone, not necessarily an expert. The covid situation was another issue I was very concerned about. I believe your advice will go a long way for me. Thank you again. LagosismyHome:
