I am getting duplicate data in my Big Query tables from Google Ads. I can look at the tables and see rows with the exact same data. Furthermore when I aggregate the data to see total cost of campaigns, it is double what is shown in the Google Ads platform. I followed the guide for the data transfer and didn't do anything outside the standard set up. I did do a backfill to get data for the entire month because it originally only imported data for the previous week. I also set the date range on the backfill to not include the week of data already imported. And there are duplicates for everyday ..read more

I work at a startup so I have to build our government statutory reporting from scratch. And lucky me, I’ve learned about each report about a week before it’s due. If the due date is missed we get fined roughly $4M/day. I’ve never done reporting that gets supplied to the government. I’m freaking out that I’ll miss something and cause a big headache and potential fines. Any advice would be appreciated! submitted by /u/jmc1278999999999 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I commented on a tiktok video regarding being a data analyst and I was FLOODED with messages in my inbox. Nearly every message was either from a person saying they have zero experience but asking how they can apply for a job or a person saying they just got certified and want to know how they can apply for a job. I say all this because when you see jobs with 200 + applications please just assume most of those people aren't even qualified. Way too many people have bought into the "just take this course" kool-aid and I did not know it was this bad. submitted by /u/MrIAmMe2 [visit reddit] [comm ..read more

I have a BS in ChemE and about 8 years working as a data analyst using sql, python, info maker and sap. I have been applying to data science/analyst roles but have not been able to get an interview even for roles which I am really qualified for. Trying to decide if it’s worth it to do an MS in analytics. Has anyone done it and seen a big change as a result?

I currently work for a software company as software support. In the past 6 months I told one of the higher ups of my interest in how things work on the back end of the software, so they gave me access to our database. I’ve learned SQL pretty well and they have moved me to a new position called “Data Conversion Specialist”. Basically, I bring in new clients data from their old software provider by going into their old software/database, and I create scripts to pull their data into our database to set them up on our software and also use data from their reports and put into excel, clean it then ..read more
