Hello,

I need some help/suggestions. My YOE is 1.3 yrs and my tech stack is Python, SQL, and i have worked on the tool Informatica (Informatica is an ETL tool)

I am trying to switch and I want to change my tech domain. I want to become a data analyst.

But whenever I appear for interviews, I don't get shortlisted after the final round, because I have work experience in Informatica. Honestly, i don't want to work on this tool anymore and I want to change the technology domain.

Sharing my thoughts !!

In November 2021, i was working in Tcs at a package of 4.1 on Mainframes. I was not happy at all with my career. Learnt a new technology(Cloud). Gave interviews, rejected by few companies including Deloitte. Kept going..
Joined Accenture as a Cloud Engineer. In December 2022, I will be earning a package of 12. Got one certification, aiming for 2nd one. All this within a span of 12 months. These are brilliant times in tech. Keep hustling. Success will be yours.

Need some advice:
I currently work in deals as an SA and
have done so for the last 7 months (I
was working in other areas of
consulting before). I have almost 4
YOE in consulting. I've quickly realised
working in deals is not for me and
can't see myself beyond the M level.
Do I grind for 1-1.5years and try to
push for M then leave completely or
do I move to another role within the
firm but means I may have to start SA
level from scratch
