I don't find interest in Digital marketing as it is not my thing. In essence, you have to get yourself into what you have a flare for and will likely do better.

Lots of organization are now in pursuit for Data analysts, I can assure you.


Take out time to Learn Python or R, SQL, Power BI or Tableau, and lastly Excel. Python will take much of your time as you'll try to get familiar with a lots of libraries like Pandas, Matplotlib, NumPy etc. Just today, the same python made me realize how foolish I can be which is really funny. Learning never stops; everyday I smile when I realize this.

Mind you, I am currently one of them (a Data analyst).

Guontey:
That's not a good way to write the function

Definitely, that's just straight to the point. Do you mind sharing your solution?

jolak5:
Thanks boss. I don fail the test already. I couldn’t solve a question

Pick your lessons and learn from them. All the best next time.

jolak5:
Hello guys, I'm learning python and I have an aptitude test with a school today.


Can anyone help me with the solution to this question?

# import the NumPy module
import numpy as np

# create an array
a = np.array([5, -10, 50, -945, 12, 0])

# Call the len() function
print("You have entered", len(a) - 1, "numbers"

Hi everyone,

So I actually have an interview on Monday. I am applying for the role of a Data analyst/Scientist. Please can anyone who is experienced in that field or an HR here tell me the kind of questions to expect. I will really be grateful. Thank you.

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!

Mimisboygreat:
Wow, nice! Lets say I'm good on just three out of those 6 you listed (excel, mysql and power Bi/tableau), will i be able to land a job as an analyst with just these three skills? In your own opinion pls?

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

Mimisboygreat:
Hi bro, what skills did you master before applying for this particular job? Goodluck in your interview.

Thanks. Ok. Basically I am proficient with Python, R, Microsoft Excel, MATLAB and MySQL.

Thanks a lot. I appreciate.

Hello Nairalanders,

Straight to the point.

I am a Programmer who works remotely for a foreign company. They pay me via PayPal. I don't know why PayPal seems so unfriendly to it's users especially Africans. I have created a lot of Ethiopian PayPal accounts since they have placed a ban on Nigeria but it keeps getting banned for one one reason or the other. I am tired of telling my employer about a new email everytime.

Just yesterday I got a message telling me to confirm my identity. Now I am scared they will block that account again.


Since it's 'identity confirmation" they want this time, I deem it the best idea is to ask experienced people of this forum. I know if I make any mistake in the process of confirming my identity, the account is getting Blocked right away.

Please how do I go about it? Thanks.

Pleae Modsove this to frontpage as it is really important. Thank you.

Themaths:
This might just interest you. Goodluck

Thanks a lot.

You are most Welcome Teophilus! Sure , as a Nigerian Toefl is mostly waived for us but you actually need it in order to be more competitive for TAship/RAship , some grad program/schools mandated it for their prospective students etc as part of the application cycle. In short, don’t be lopsided in your profile at all rather than to have everything that’s been needed to get that funding and admit.

Most grad schools are waiving GRE now but that Toefl is very useful at this crucial time most especially that you are going for an engineering degree, I will advice you take that Toefl too.

If you look at the scoring abilities of the gre test takers now, many are scoring nothing less than 320 and majority of them don’t take Toefl rather than that GRE but it doesn’t ends there at all whatsoever as many have similar scores at hand but having that Toefl will give you a competitive and promising EDGE above others when evaluating your app.

Thanks for the insight sir. I really appreciate it sir. I already have sent you a mail.

walepepe21:
Nice GPA! Make sure you take GRE and TOEFL and score at least 315(Q-160) and 90(S-23) respectively so as to be able to qualify for TAship/RAship into Top Schools, Middle schools and safety net schools in USA.

As for your degree, if you actually read Agricultural Engineering in your UG degree it’s suitable for you to have admit with full funding in IE(Industrial Engineering) as that is the direct degree many go for with your UG degree in USA as few schools have Agricultural Engineering in USA. Schools like Okstate University, UIUC etc have it but to enter IE is very easy for you with your good grades in your coursework which will make you worthy for both admit and funding.

However, 4 of my students got Admit , Full Funding (TAship ) & visa approval with PhD IE this Fall semester and they’re your professional brothers as they studied Agricultural Engineering as Their UG degree too.

Finally, as best in your class you already have a good Letter of recommendations to make your app to be more Competitive for TAship especially.

I wish you good-luck in your both tests!

Wow! Thanks a lot for this sir. I would really love to contact you, and as well, get across to my brothers in my field too in IE over there in the US. I already PM'd you Sir. I'll really be grateful sir.
