How to get your first Data Analytics interview in 8 weeks:

1. Search for "[industry]" and other relevant keywords (example: "Financial Analyst", "Banking Analyst", "Risk Analyst");

2. Grab 20-30 job descriptions;

3. Use an LLM to let you know the core tools, skills, and processes;

4. Use that information to identify 1-2 projects that cover them;

5. Create those 1-2 projects, placing keywords in your documentation related to the core tools, skills, and processes;

6. Create your portfolio with these projects (only these);

7. Rewrite your resume with keywords related to the core tools, skills, and processes;

8. Update your LinkedIn to keywords related to the core tools, skills, and processes;

9. Apply to jobs every day and send a cover letter after each application;

10. After sending the cover letter, reach out to the company's hiring manager — use A/B testing and keep iterating;

11. Do this every day for two months and aim for at least 20 applications per day (Total: 1120 applications/min) — 4 hours every day, 10 minutes per application;

12. Don't give up on weeks 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8;

13. Do 9-12 only after you have done 1-8;



P.S — Use A.I to do the heavy lifting (Research about the core tools, skills and processes, research about the company, finding relevant keywords), but use your brain when it comes to writing the cover letters and speaking to people).

P.P.S — Most people don't give up because they don't have a plan. They do because they don't follow it.
