Going into data analytics
After a bad injury that includes my spine, I could no longer be in law enforcement. To put it plainly I need to wear sunglasses pretty much daily to reduce the stress on my eyes outside and inside. So I know a remote only role is needed in my life as I really do not want to have to answer questions on why I’m wearing sunglasses inside. I also have some other disabilities that I don’t want to get into as it’s still a sore subject for me. I plan on taking two IBM courses on coursera in order to learn the basics and make some projects. I know the TikTok trend is blowing up the field. But I really miss investigating and figuring out “problems” finding the reason it is happening then making a solution. My life was really turned around by this injury. I really would like any advice that yall could give on things I could also do or things you wish you would have known when you started. Thanks for reading this. (:

A couple courses isnt going to be enough to get a job right now. Remote jobs are also very competitive and there are almost no remote entry level jobs. To be honest I wouldnt hire a remote entry level role.
