Entry Level Careers

Hi mariagonzalez14,

The earlier replies cover portfolio projects, certifications and internships well, so here are a few extras. Use the Fabric free trial to build one project that goes from raw data to a Power BI report, and write a short post about it on LinkedIn or GitHub explaining what you found and why it matters. Practice SQL and a few case style questions where you explain a result to a non-technical person, because many entry level interviews test both. Do not rule out analyst or reporting roles as a first step, since they are a common route into data science once you have real data experience. Your university career office and alumni network are also worth using, as many entry level roles are filled through referrals.
