With the plethora of options out there in the field of data, how
do you shape your perfect career? What are the skills to learn
and which roles should you aspire? There are the topics Christian
Krug, host of the podcast “UNF#CK YOUR DATA” discusses with Eva
Murray, self-employed career coach.
While some people claim “I didn’t choose data, data chose me”,
usually data careers don’t happen by accident. At least the
successful ones don’t.
But what does it take to make such a career.
I’m going to give you the hard answer first: There is no way
around a solid technical foundation! Yes data careers include
leadership and management roles. A lot of data is business
related, but still there is a lot of tech involved. So getting
some knowledge in SQL (of Python) just expands your options by a
large margin.
Of course, there are not only the backend roles and data
visualizations are also a awesome topic. But at some point you
should get your hands dirty and at least get a basic
understanding of technical concepts and coding.
When you’ve laid that foundation, communication is king. Data
teams tend to be in between IT and business. Serving business
needs and solving business problems with the tools that IT
provides.
Thinking ahead and providing not only numbers and information,
but also giving solutions is key. If you then manage to be easy
to work with and understand the cultural aspects of
communication. You are set to make a quick start.
Wherever you go in data. Deep tech, consulting, requirements
engineering, tech vendor, banking and so on. The most important
thing is: It is your career and never leave the driver’s seat.
Actively forge it. Else others will forge it for you. But not in
your best interest, but theirs.
So reclaim the seat!
