I have been taking courses to learn Power BI and sql on LinkedIn learning. What else can I be doing to set myself up for this role? Grad school?

Going to be a difficult pivot unless you have connections at a smaller firm. Recommend a masters in applied analytics

Alternatively you could do internal transfer or move to another consultancy that has big analytics practice

I was fired last month after a short time at the company. I knew things weren't going well- it was a terrible culture fit & I was also planning my exit strategy. They wouldn't give me specific reasons other than to vaguely say it was performance related. I agree I made a few dumb mistakes (none of any dire consequence) but what kills me is that I tried really hard. I don't want to change careers but I have a deep seeded fear that no matter how hard I try, I will never be a "good attorney".
