Hi All, I'm 57 and in a career change, I'm currently doing well and half way through the Coursera Data Analysis course by Google, I really enjoy it so far and feel I selected well. Is there any advice anyone has for further learning and practicing SQL? Advice on finding an entry level job? I feel the world has passed me by while I've been loyal to an employer for 20 years who wasn't loyal in return, so I am learning all I can.

Jobs in general are really hard to find right now but especially entry level jobs. I would suggest asking your network of friends and family if any of them know of anything to refer you to. Sometimes a referral can help you get your foot in the door.
