Work 2,700 hours in a year at your current $37/hr rate and you’ll reach $100K.

That’s 12 hours of OT a week over a 40 hour workweek, which is just 2.5 hours more a day, every day.

Problem solved.

Why are you an hourly trade analyst? Is it a contract role? I would assume at that rate they hit salaried

To get a 100k salary or more:

- Educate yourself in the fliers you like as much as possible in an institution, so you have titles to show to your future employer

- Switch jobs (most companies give bad raises, the only way to make a significant salary jump is going to another company with a better title with more responsibilities)

- Build experience before jumping to a better role

I’ve got about 20 years cross channel experience in marketing, split between big brands and startups, and I’m considering pivoting into a data science/data analyst role. I know it will initially be a step back in comp but is it at all realistic for a person with certificate level experience in data analysis but a decent marketing management background to expect $150-200k comp or is that mostly for degreed candidates (or not realistic at all)? Any guidance here is greatly appreciated.
