Summary of the data analysis process

"It is a complex process that involves more than just crunching numbers. In very few cases can a data analyst's job start directly from receiving a dataset from the client.

More often than not, you may need to spend hours and hours in meetings with clients or other stakeholders to get the right access or the right data, especially when the project involves collaboration across multiple departments. And sometimes, you may need to go back to the first step to adjust the plan when certain data is not available.

This is actually a big part of the data analysis work.

You may also find yourself consistently working in an ambiguous space that is evolving fast and requiring a broad skillset. Meanwhile, the wide range of skills needed has led to a growth in data science specializations.

It may sound overwhelming, but like many other jobs, you don't have to know it all to start. Learn the fundamentals, plus Excel, SQL, and Python basics, and you're good to go! 🚀 "
