Getting specialized in one Business Intelligence tool what to do next? Not willing to go to management. Need some advice.

Hi All, I need advice from experienced folks here. I joined a recruitment firm working in blue collar around 6 months back as a Product Manager. Around 4 months into the system, I was tasked to build the business intelligence system (it has been ongoing). My manager asked me to whether I want to continue in data and build core skills in data analytics based on my interest and what plans for career. I am a little confused here since I haven’t tried real Product per se and although I enjoy working with data I am not sure whether to build career as a BA and if I can build data competency working as a PM. I need to get back to them by next Tuesday. What are your thoughts here? Please be brutally honest, will appreciate pros and cons Thank You!

Apologies for this long post, but I am mostly relying on Grapevine community to help me at this career crossroad. I spent almost 10+ years in operations after joining TCS but realised that i was just climbing corporate ladder without developing any real skill. I asked my BRM to involve me in something and i was given chance to work on RFP for which i managed entire flow from data collection to analysis to presentation. To my surprise, my work was appreciated and started getting more such work and i liked it doing even though i knew i am not going to get much credit for it. Then i decided to move out of ops and joined other project as strategy & insight- analyst and i did well there receiving accolades from client. Project got closed but i realised that I am good with complex data analysis and presentation of the same. I learned power bi and Microstrategy as well. But post that, i never got any suitable project and senior suggested me to learn developer/architecture of any BI tool because as per them that is what required apart from preparing dashboard. I am learning Microstrategy developer now but I have accepted L2 support role as I am not getting any suitable role. My question is ..after all this - What should i do now? What should i learn now to enter into my interest area ? PS: I am from non-technical background and i have started learning SQL.

I used to work as a Business Analyst, currently working as Senior Data Analyst. I want to go back towards the business side only. Any suggestions on what are new skills to add on in Sql, Python, Power bi, tableau and excel?? I was thinking of starting with databricks.

I am currently in a sales generalist role making around 3 LPA in a startup. I am already 25 and I would like to switch into account management or a media buying role. What skills or tools should I consider learning? Currently learning excel & will be starting power BI. My goal is to reach at least 10 LPA this year through any certification or a skill. I know I have higher expectations but I am ready to learn anything that it takes.

To give a brief background, I did BTech in biotechnology from a tier 2 college which I soon realised didn’t have any interest in. Currently 24YOE I took up a job as an operations analyst at a series b funded startup. Worked on internal tools + gsheets + SQL(basic select queries). Became expert of this internal tool but realised the skill and knowledge isn’t transferable. Got promoted to project analyst within a year and started handling internal teams + client comm. gave 1 year to this position. Currently at 8LPA Now I am looking to switch and unable to understand which way should I go. Have interest in business strategy + data related work.

I am currently working as scrum master. I am getting headache by daily calls and i have to facilitate all i don't have interest in this. I want a work that i can do everyday without meeting all people. Just 1 meeting is ok to say about my progress. Im psm2 certified recently. I don't want this talking work. I need analyst type work. What about power bi analyst should i learn that? Suggest any tool based work tool should be universally recognized by every company. Not interested in coding and testing. Im fedup with agike and sdlc 😰

What kind of interview questions we can expect from product based companies for Business Intelligence Role? Kindly share your experiences , I currently work in oracle ( 4+ Years experience) and seeking to switch in other pbc sooner. So will start preparing And what could be the expected package as well. Thanks
