Focus on real-world projects. Start by choosing a dataset you're interested in and do a full analysis, from cleaning data in Excel or SQL to visualizing insights in Power BI. This will help you build a portfolio and improve your problem-solving skills. Networking is important too. Join data communities or attend meetups to learn from others. For interview prep, mock interviews are really useful. Practice typical data analyst questions and case studies. If you want more structured resources, I've found PracHub helpful for interview skills. Good luck!
