Data is everywhere. Standing out in it requires more than knowing Python. In this session we'll cover:
ā The analytics career landscape - consulting vs in-house vs startup, what each actually looks like
ā Tools that hiring managers actually care about: Gen AI, Python, SQL, Power BI, Tableau and the ones that are overhyped
ā How to transition into analytics from a non-tech background (I've helped teams do this)
ā Building a portfolio that gets you interviews, what projects signal competence
ā Data roles in Singapore and UAE, what's in demand, what pays well
ā AI and analytics: how the field is shifting and where to position yourself
ā Real talk on the MSc Statistics path: what it opens up and what it doesn't
I have an MSc in Statistics from NUS, 6+ years using Python, SQL, Power BI, and other tools across healthcare, e-commerce, and consulting and I currently lead Strategy & Analytics at an AI startup in Dubai.
Come with: your current background, tools you know, and the type of role you're targeting.
