17 Months Unemployed and Still Trying ,Looking for a Data Analyst Opportunity or Referral

Hi everyone,

I'm writing this with a lot of hope because, honestly, I don't know what else to do at this point.

I've been job hunting for **17 months**, and my financial situation has become really bad. I'm the elder daughter in my family, and supporting my family is a responsibility that's extremely important to me. I genuinely need to find a job, and the longer this goes on, the harder things are becoming for us.

I previously worked for a year at a company that eventually shut down. We weren't paid our salaries for the last 4–5 months, and ever since then, I've been trying to find another job. I've applied to countless openings, reached out to recruiters and professionals, and actively messaged **250+ people on LinkedIn** looking for guidance, opportunities, or referrals.

Unfortunately, I've received very little help so far. Most of the time, it's rejection emails, and in many cases, I don't hear back from companies at all. I've kept trying, improving my skills, and building projects to demonstrate my abilities, but despite all these efforts, I'm still unemployed.

This situation has taken a serious toll on me mentally and emotionally. My financial circumstances are extremely difficult, and I need to start earning so I can support my family. As the elder daughter, this isn't just about finding a job for myself; it's also about being able to contribute to my family's needs.

Honestly, **this post feels like one of my last hopes of finding an opportunity.** I'm not asking anyone to hand me a job without evaluating my skills. I'm just asking for a chance to be considered and prove that I can do the work.

# Projects I've worked on

* **Retail Sales Analytics Dashboard:** Built an end-to-end analytics project using SQL, PostgreSQL, and Power BI, covering 150K transactions, data cleaning and quality checks, a seven-table star schema, DAX measures, and a five-page interactive dashboard.

* **Customer Churn Analysis:** Worked on SQL-based churn analysis and a PostgreSQL data warehouse pipeline to explore churn patterns, customer behaviour, data quality, and revenue at risk.

* **Freddie Mac Mortgage Data Pipeline (in progress):** Currently building a Python, Pandas, and SQL-based pipeline focused on mortgage data profiling, validation, ETL, and data warehousing.

# Skills

SQL, PostgreSQL, Python, Pandas, Power BI, DAX, Power Query, Excel, data cleaning, data validation, ETL, and data modelling.

I'm looking for **Data Analyst, BI Analyst, SQL Developer / Junior SQL Developer or Junior Data Analyst** opportunities. I'm open to suitable opportunities and willing to learn, work hard, and prove myself.

If anyone knows of an opening, can refer me, or can connect me with a recruiter or hiring manager, please **reach out/DM me**. I'd be incredibly grateful for any genuine lead or referral. Even one conversation with the right person could make a real difference to my situation.

I've been trying for so long, and I'm genuinely struggling. I don't want to give up, but right now, I really need some help getting my career back on track.

Thank you for reading this and for any help you can offer.

Need Suggestions. About Data Analytics, Python etc

I have enrolled myself in a course of Data Analytics. The course is going extremely slow. So I need suggestions based on my problems.

  1. I am liking python but I don't know am I doing I more than required or will I have a job only on the basis of python? So that I master it and it's libraries.

  2. I have not yet begin for SQL, Excel and Powebi. My time is scarce so where should I go and what should I master.

  3. I don't even know if I am overdoing python or how will the real projects will be like.
