Confused and Frustrated
I am currently at a Salesforce based service firm working as a BA I have been here since the past 9 months and apart from my training and some menial tasks I have never been into anything serious. Expect for designing demo dashboards with synthetic data for demos.
I graduated in 2023 and managed to secure a data science internship at a Blr based startup, I thoroughly enjoyed working here but my internship did not convert. I am looking to shift into data analytics and data science. What would you do if you were me.
I do have a 2 year bond but I am willing to break it.
Pls do drop your take on the situation I literally hate travelling daily to do pretty much nothing. I feel like my best time is getting wasted.
so like you said you don't have a complete year of experience. Salesforce does has lot of interesting work from what I have heard from my friends, they enjoy it. Also there is solid demand as well but, most for bit experienced candidates. Look it may be frustrating but if you have time try to unskill on your own. You will seldom get chance to work on something great without prior experience. Best way is to keep upskilling yourself and when time comes jump for better opportunities outside. While that time you will also be quite equipped with req knowledge..
So the point is I’m looking to move out of Salesforce not that Salesforce is limited but I would love to work more in the world of analytics, data science or even product management. Salesforce while being well paid and all makes me feel like it doesn’t offer room for any kind of creativity it’s often restrictive which I am not a fan of I would love to have a more open playground. On the upskilling part I am investing time on preparing for data analyst roles from the past couple of months hopefully I will be able to break into something I will find interesting. Thanks for the advice btw
