On average, the starting salary for an entry-level data analyst can range from $50,000 to $70,000 per year. The job outlook for data analysts is generally positive. The demand for skilled data analysts has been steadily increasing in recent years as more companies recognize the value of data-driven decision-making.

I would think there are probably some scam jobs out there that pay $15 -$20 but they probably wouldn't be worth your time

Was it difficult to find your first role as a DA? How many jobs did you apply to? How many interviews did you have? What are your qualifications to do the job? Thanks

At my data entry role I sadly only make about $36,000 a year but I only have my Associate's degree...looking to climb the ladder though

Data entry is a lot different than being a data analyst, you might be in the wrong bowl

Depends on what particular area of the country you're working in. If you're in a place like North Carolina you're not going to get the same as a place like Pittsburgh

Honestly, the need for these kinds of roles appears to remain pretty consistent. I made $60k in my first year but it's going to get bumped to $65k for sure this year.

Currently in an entry analytics position as my first job after grad school, it pays 66k plus bonus and unlimited PTO which is neat. Shoot for big corporate instead of SM firms. Much better benefits even the pay is meh.

My DA1’s start at 29. Generally average 30-34

Until AI replaces most of us. Personally, I’m anticipating a layoff soon and I’m seriously considering a pivot to something entirely different because of the way the tech is evolving so fast. I don’t want to keep jumping from company to company trying to out run what’s inevitable.

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent to my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t grow my network as much, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)
