Hello fellow fishes,
I'm 5 YOE in analytics, mainly CPG/Retail business understanding and solutioning with a touch of python.

I'm planning to enter in freelancing. What could be a potential stream and how to break through into that first project.

I felt like I am moving nowhere. I don't know what to do.

I am 29. I decided again to pause studying business in a university. I only have 5 subjects left before graduation. Reasons?

$10,000 total debts,
Pandemic,
Career Crisis

I turned to online classes that offer internship and support. I'm taking digital marketing, python programming and bookkeeping to apply and enhance my skills. I retained my job as a real time analyst.

I sleep 6 hours in average. High sugar intake.

Is it worth it to go back to school for a better track to a FAANG company?

Hi friends of fishbowl! A year ago I told myself no more agencies. Then I got a job at another agency and I’m basically hating my life more than ever right now.

So my question is what job titles should I be targeting as a senior project manager if I want to go to to client side?
