Coursera has a pretty good Tableau course. Auditing is free. It even gives you a 6 month trial version of Tableau

For Python I like “learn python the hard way” which is a free pdf

I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role.

Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?
