I’m a business analyst and I recently learned sql. I found it to be quite interesting. It’s making me want to transition into a more technical role, which is something I’ve always been interested in but never knew which area to focus on. I’m thinking of enrolling into a bootcamp or something similar and hopefully getting into more of data analyst roles. Any programs or boot camps you recommend? I was also considering a part time masters but not sure I can commit with how many hours I work.

SQL is the foundation for a business analyst skill in general. But pure SQL database work is getting outsourced to low cost location more and more. I think if you are going in that direction, you’ll need to build out your data analytics skill with automation and / or model development, combined with domain knowledge in certain industries.

I’ve heard jokes about the Freshman 15, but not seen how this plays out. Is this common? Do most people lose it when they adjust to college?
