Been looking for new analyst roles for 2 months since being laid off with no real luck and thinking of taking a course or two to brush up on my skills in the meantime. Any recommendations from the fishes? I have lots of exposure already to Alteryx, Tableau, and Power BI. I've done a short course on sql bit haven't had to use it day-to-day at all.

Im in the same exact boat, i have had a few really good interviews but was pushed out over a internal hire for the roles.

I would say SQL is a must, go to testdome and take a 15minute certification test and it will automatically upload it to your linked.

Best of luck!

LinkedIn posts a lot of these roles.

You have to create a resume that picks up the ATS system and keep applying everyday until you are hired. Also, set up job alerts to be the first one to apply.

Hi, been stuck in the contract analysis/review cycle. I have asked a few recruiters how to make a lateral move into in-house.

Hi there. Ex Deloitte Sr Mgr here, currently in tech pre sales (SaaS / MarTech). Recently spoke to both Salesforce and Adobe recruiters for roles that I thought were lateral moves (Sr SA / Sr SC), therefore I did not proceed with the selection process. The recruiters from both companies told me they typically hire at that level, and people are considered for promotion to Principal in 1 to 2 years. I found that odd. Is that right? What’s the typical TC for SAs and SCs there? (15+ yrs exp).
