😢 Sad news today.

This is what your data job hunt will probably look like.

no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no yes

In fact, that’s exactly how my friend Venkata’s (this week’s podcast guest) journey looked like…only 10x more “no’s” (literally).

Don’t get discouraged by all the no’s. They happen.

Here are 5 little things you can do today to get less no’s:

  1. Make sure you resume is ATS friendly (I recommend this free software)

  2. Start posting on LinkedIn (I dare you to post right now)

  3. Focus on in-person or hybrid jobs (less competition)

  4. Find a good mentor (book a 1:1 call with me?)

  5. Listen to Venkata’s story on The Data Career Podcast (it’s good)

 

✌ Hope these help
