The Query
August 31, 2023

Hey crunchers! The Query here — today we’ve got something special…

We’ve been working on a comprehensive and actionable guide to becoming a data analyst.

AND IT’S LIVE 🎉 🥳 🎉 🥳 🎉 🥳 🎉 🥳

It took 100+ hours to create and is over 15k words long 🫢

The guide is broken up into 4 chapters:

Chapter 1 aims to answer an important question: "Is a career as a data analyst right for you?"

Learning to become a data analyst is not something that happens overnight.

It takes time and consistency.

Before making this commitment, you need to be honest with yourself about whether this career path is right for you.

Chapter 2 sets you up to learn most effectively.

Many of us have bad habits when it comes to learning that we inherited from the education system we grew up in.

We show you how to break these habits and approach learning in a way that will help you learn as fast as possible.

Chapter 3 is where we provide you with a learning roadmap and link out to the best resources to learn the skills of a data analyst.

You’ll learn about data and spreadsheets.

You’ll learn your first coding language, SQL.

And you’ll learn a BI tool of your choosing (Tableau or Power BI).

All while building a portfolio of 7 projects you can leverage when applying for jobs.‍

If you follow this diligently, you'll acquire the necessary skills to be a viable candidate for a data analyst position in ~3-9 months.

Naturally, some people will learn faster than others.

But on average, you can expect this journey to take 6 months.

Lastly, Chapter 4 is all about landing a job. ‍

You’ll learn how to craft a resume and cover letter that lands interviews.

You’ll learn how to best apply for jobs.‍

And you’ll learn how to prepare for interviews.

We’re super happy and proud to put this into the world 🤓

Hope you enjoy ❤️

Stay crunchin’ folks and see you next week!
