  3. Learn SQL and data preparation and visualization and forecasting to the level of completing an independent practical task—not merely finishing a course.
  4. Create a finance case using open or anonymized data: model, calculation, dashboard and management conclusion.
  5. Review 20–30 vacancies and choose only courses or certificates that repeatedly appear in employer requirements.
  6. Rewrite your résumé for Financial Analyst, add the case and begin with test applications, internships, projects or adjacent tasks at your current employer.
