Data Career Podcast: Helping You Land a Data Analyst Job FAST

Interview I did with Matt Sharp, current data engineer at MX and data LinkedIn personality. We talk about Matt’s journey from chemical engineering to working at Intel Micron and becoming a data scientist, and finally switching into FinTech and becoming a data engineer. We talk about the difference between small companies and big companies and the pros and cons of each. We talk about what data engineering even is, the importance of projects, how LinkedIn can be used to be an intrepreneur and networking within your company, and more!

In this episode, I respond to Marc Lamy's question about where to find data analyst roles and how to get one. The answer as always, DO PROJECTS! I also mention using your network, especially your university alumni and resources. Maybe try a smaller company? And check out some of the listings on Stack Overflow.

This is probably my favorite Ask Avery show of all time, at least of the last few months. We had some folks show up live to ask questions. Ricardo and Quincy asked awesome questions and it was so fun to talk to them face to face. We talked about how to stand out in getting a job in data with Ricardo. And Quincy asked about my opinion on bootcamps. We then took two written questions from Robert and Adnan. They asked about a structured plan for data science as well as how to know if you like data science. I’m going to be ending the giveaway for the podcast rate and review. Please if you have one second and are on apple podcasts, please give us a review as it really helps the show. I’ll be choosing two random people to get shout outs on my linkedin as well as the podcast. Want to leave a question for the Ask Avery Show?

The first official interview of the data career podcast! It was right after out launch party for the podcast and it was with the awesome. Thom Ives was our guest. Be sure to follow him on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomives/. Total stud. Love the guy. Seriously so nice. We talked about his long career in data and his transition from engineering to data science.  That is the way to become a data scientist, you do data science before the role is ever assigned you. Don’t forget that. I do want to also apologize for my tech issues on this episode. I somehow unplugged my nice mic for my audio, and my headphones weren’t working to listen to Thom’s. That being said this audio is NOT the best. I am super sorry. There's also a giveaway going on for the pod, all you need to do is rate and review on Apple Podcasts.  Want to leave a question for the Ask Avery Show?

My computer had to reset and it took hours so I ended up having to do this one from my phone. I covered what my favorite business and data books are, and the importance of data projects and a personal portfolio. Want to leave a question for the Ask Avery Show?
