Python
Python, SQL, C#
If not C# specifically, it’s good to have a more structured programming language in your arsenal - C#, C++, Java. Certain tools you’ll come across with custom scripting functionality embedded will not support Python.
I’m skilled in both SQL and Python, but I’ve found that Alteryx has been a huge time saver as well for most things that you would otherwise create storedprocs for/data wrangling. Highly recommend getting their free certification
KPMG2 - definitely. I think it runs on Python in the backend, but I agree, if you know SQL, Alteryx can be redundant. I’m proficient in both, so I will say I prefer Alteryx for certain things such as what EY2 said and also it allows certain functions much faster than typing out the actual SQL (pivots, selecting columns, casting columns, etc.)
