Breaking into data analytics can be brutal – hundreds of applicants, endless tools to learn, sketchy recruiters, and job applications that seem to go nowhere.
But it doesn’t have to be this painful.
In this video, I’ll walk you through the exact 5-step process that helped me launch my own career, and share the same resources that over 1 million Maven Analytics students have used to build job-ready skills, showcase their work, and land their dream jobs in data analytics:
Step 1: Find your path
Step 2: Learn how to THINK like an analyst
Step 3: Build foundational skills (Excel, SQL, Power BI/Tableau)
Step 4: Showcase your portfolio
Step 5: Build a personal brand
I’ll also talk about the biggest mistakes to avoid, review essential tools (including AI models like ChatGPT & Copilot), and share free resources to help fast-track your career.
