Hello 🐠, I’ve been working mainly in government contracting companies and want to break into tech and become a data analyst! I used excel daily but nothing else so i have been learning on my own on SQL and little bit of tableau. It’s been really difficult to get a new job in the data analytics field bc I don’t have enough experience in tech skills (ie sql, python, r) any tips? I keep getting rejected or no responses from recruiters

Brand Strategy/Planning roles aren't typical in PR. So every new Account hire arrives with no experience working with a Strategist. I'm tired of explaining/showing my role adds necessary value. I love strategy, but I have an offer at another agency to move into Account as Group SVP. They want to "customize" the role for my experience, but I'm afraid it will just be on paper and people will expect me to know things I just won't. I can't afford to be fired. Thoughts? Considerations? Watch-outs?

I made the switch from marketing to PR this year. I basically went from having 15 years of experience to being a newbie in a different subject matter. I miss creative development for ads/web/video, having more tactics to integrate into strategies, and the leadership opportunities I had managing junior team members. I don’t miss 50+ work weeks and measuring success from my stress level. I like my team, but I feel underutilized. Should I sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride for a few years?
