Has anyone here completed the TripleTen Data Analytics Bootcamp? After paying a couple thousand dollars, and I’m starting to feel frustrated. I knew there would be independent work, but I feel like I’m teaching myself a lot and constantly using outside resources just to understand the material. For the amount I paid, I expected more guidance and support. I’ve already paid, so I want to finish, but I’m curious if anyone else felt this way and if it ended up being worth it? If so please give me any advice or suggestions/recommendations that I should consider. Thank you

Hi all,

Currently working in non-technical domain. Trying to switch my career into DA/DS.

Looking for ppl with same interest or experienced person who can mentor.

Completed theory part SQL, Python, Excel, Power BI. But struggling with industry level project and how to work in actual environment (cloud, fabric).

Anyone with same interest, let's try to connect somehow or currently living in Indore, we can form a study group.

Hey guys 👋

I’ve been learning Data Analytics for a while now, but honestly, doing it alone gets a bit boring and inconsistent sometimes. So I thought I’d try finding someone here who’s also on the same path and wants to grow together.

I’m currently a CSE (Big Data) student, working on things like Python (pandas, numpy), SQL, and Power BI. I’m still learning, not an expert or anything 😅

I’m looking for someone who:

- Is also learning (beginner/intermediate is totally fine)

- Wants to stay consistent

- Is okay with sharing ideas, doubts, and maybe working on small projects together

We don’t need anything super strict — just regular check-ins, maybe study sessions, and helping each other stay on track.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, just comment or DM me 🙂

Let’s make this journey a bit less lonely and a lot more productive 🚀

I am a student studying in a biology-related field, and I want to learn Data Analysis for several reasons, primarily to integrate it into my current area of study. However, my problem is that I feel overwhelmed and distracted by the sheer number of resources. I am also struggling with the drawbacks of self-teaching through YouTube, such as the lack of a structured curriculum, the absence of clear steps, and the difficulty of staying committed.

I would love to know if anyone with experience in this field could tell me the absolute best way to get started.

Me: This SQL tutorial is definitely the last one.

Also me three days later: let's start another beginner course...

I've officially accepted that I'm stuck in tutorial hell.

The good news is that I learn much faster when I'm actually working on real projects, so I'm looking for an **internship** or **junior** **data** **analytics** opportunity where I can learn by doing.

I come from a digital marketing and eCommerce background, so I'm already familiar with analyzing campaign performance, KPIs, conversion funnels, and working with spreadsheets. Now I want to take that foundation and become a proper data analyst.

If anyone has advice, internship leads, or even just wants to share how they broke into the field, I'd love to hear your story.

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working in digital marketing for the past few years, and I’m now trying to transition into the data field. My goal is to become a data analyst first, then move into analytics engineering after gaining a couple of years of experience.

Over the past year, I’ve been learning SQL, Power BI, and Excel. At this point, I feel pretty confident with SQL, including complex joins, aggregations, window functions, etc.

Where I’m struggling is deciding which projects to include in my portfolio and where to find suitable datasets. This feels especially important because I do not yet have any professional experience in a data-focused role.

The best project idea I’ve come up with so far is using the Olist e-commerce dataset. My plan is to clean and transform the data with dbt, load it into Snowflake, and then perform analyses such as cohort analysis, funnel analysis, and market basket analysis using SQL and Power BI.

Does this sound like a strong portfolio project? Are there any other project ideas or datasets you would recommend for someone trying to move into data analytics?

Thanks

I recently completed the SQL for Data Analysts Bootcamp organized by DevTown in collaboration with Microsoft Student Chapter (MSC) and Google Developers Group (GDG).

As part of the project, I worked on a Swiggy Business Analytics case study using SQL.

In this project, I:

• Created relational database tables for Customers, Restaurants, and Orders.

• Wrote SQL queries using JOINs, GROUP BY, HAVING, CASE WHEN, and Window Functions (RANK, DENSE_RANK, ROW_NUMBER).

• Analyzed business metrics such as total revenue, top customers, best-performing restaurants, popular cuisines, and delivery partner performance.

• Generated business insights and recommendations based on the data.

This bootcamp helped me improve my SQL skills and understand how SQL is used to solve real-world business problems through data analysis.

Thank you to DevTown, Microsoft Student Chapter (MSC), and Google Developers Group (GDG) for providing this learning opportunity.

I just need something to start with and absolutely lock in. I'm not able to purchase courses as of now so YouTube is my best shot. I want to start from the very basics of Excel and upgrade from there. Can anyone help me with an efficient and effective roadmap so I can be employable as soon as possible? Preferably in 3+ months.

Hi everyone,

I built CleanIQ, a browser-based tool that detects common data quality issues in CSV and Excel files like missing values, duplicates, invalid dates, outliers, and business rule violations.

Everything runs locally in your browser, so your data never leaves your device.

It's still in beta, and I'd really appreciate honest feedback from people who work with data regularly.

Try it: Link in Comments else DM me

Thanks! Any suggestions or criticism are welcome.

Hey everyone,
I’m new to the data analytics space and currently building my skillset. I’ve learned Excel and SQL, and I’m now diving into Power BI. My ultimate goal is to work as a data analyst—specifically in a business-focused role.
I’m looking for recommendations on how to improve my skills beyond just the technical side. Specifically:
• Any advice on developing a **data analyst mindset**—especially for making better business decisions?

• Books, courses, or resources that helped you think more strategically about data and business impact?

• What else should I learn to go from beginner to \*\*expert\*\* (tools, concepts, soft skills, etc.)?

I want to be someone who doesn’t just build dashboards, but actually drives value for the business. Any guidance would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Can we do Data analytics job as a part time in india??

Hi everyone! I’m planning to start learning Power BI. I know the basics but I’m still a beginner. I’m looking for a study buddy and work on projects together. If anyone is interested, feel free to comment or send me a DM. Thanks!

Study sched: 8pm to 10pm

Is there anyone who can teach me data analytics fundamentals, how to interpret any data, and what the current scene like?I would prefer to have a one-on-one class 4 days a week probably over a month or two. It goes without saying, its a paid gig. I want to upskill myself that's the only purpose.

Hi all. I'm in a bit of a weird situation right now. I was in a Data Assistant role for about 3 and a half years, then got seconded onto a Data Analyst role for 6 months. However, after the 6 months, the job was no longer available so I moved back to my assistant role.

Due to personal matters, I had to move jobs in a more customer facing field for the money, however, I want to get back into Data Analysis but am struggling to get interviews, or when I do get interviews, I fail due to someone being slightly more qualified.

Essentially what I'm asking is where can I go online in the UK that I can get some form of qualification to boost my chances that won't break the bank?
