The Program
What Is The CareerHacker Data Analyst Mentorship?
- The CareerHacker Data Analyst Mentorship program that is designed to get you hired at a fulfilling and challenging job as a data analyst as fast as possible.
- Students work directly with Chris to achieve their goal of getting hired as fast as possible. That means that we don’t just show you how to learn the skills (you can do that on your own for free, or with any of the hundreds of cheap “bootcamp” courses on the market).
- We guide you through learning the skills (and only the skills that are actually relevant to getting you hired).
- We help you CREATE experience and portfolio pieces that you can use to PROVE to companies that you have the skills, AND get around the 2+ years of experience requirement that almost every job has.
- We work with you to design the perfect resume and LinkedIn profile that tells employers exactly what they want to hear when they’re looking for data analysts.
- We help you find and apply for the best job openings for your unique background, experience level, location, and career goals.
- And we prepare you for job interviews and help you with the little tests that some companies like to give as part of the interview process.
How Is This Different?
- You might have noticed that there are a large number of programs on the market that teach data analysis, ranging from free or very cheap online courses, to online “bootcamps” in the $5,000 to $10,000 range, to master’s degree programs that cost as much as a new Mercedes.
- The CareerHacker Data Analyst Mentorship is very different from everything else on the market in a few important ways:
- Our focus is on getting you hired, NOT on learning new skills. Learning new skills is an important part of the process, but it’s not the goal. We do everything with the end in mind. Chris spent 4 years in college learning with nothing to show for it. Learning is useless unless it’s directed at a specific goal
- Most data analytics programs focus on teaching you as many data skills as possible. We do the opposite. We teach the LEAST necessary to get you hired. Our goal is not to overwhelm you with information, our goal is to get you hired fast. Once you’re hired, we absolutely recommend you learn and expand your skill set and get better at your job every day. That’s how you get promoted and advance your career. We just think you should get paid while you’re doing it.
- We give you personal support and accountability every step of the way. If you get stuck on something, we’re there to help. We’re working live with you every week, so we’re there to help you with whatever you need.
- We have real world experience, we understand what companies are looking for, and we know exactly how to get your resume past the HR people, into the hands of the hiring manager, and onto the “call for interview” pile.
- We help you CREATE experience for your resume. We have strategies to fit every career background, no matter how seemingly unrelated to data analysis.
- We understand that each of our clients’ situation is unique, so if it takes you longer than the length of the program to learn what you need to get hired, we continue working with you as long as it takes, at NO EXTRA CHARGE. This is in line with the Career Hacker methodology: start with a clear goal, take the steps to reach the goal, and do whatever it takes to overcome any obstacles that present themselves. We guarantee you will reach your goal of getting a job as a data analyst, and we work with you until the goal is reached.
Pricing
- Although this is a premium live mentorship program, currently our prices are lower than most of the “bootcamp” programs. We have various pricing options that depend on your unique situation and needs. We don’t list exact prices, as they vary, and are going up as the program becomes more sophisticated, but all options are in the thousands.
- We do have payment plans and financing options available for those who qualify (usually this means you have a consistent income and a decent credit score).
