My name is Vijaylaxmi Jadhav. I’m basically from Karnataka. I have completed my graduation in BCA (bachelor of computer application) from Gulbarga university. After completion of graduation, I have joined the great learning. After successfully completing a data science and business analytics course I have been placed in WNS company in Pune through great learning placements. Currently I’m working as an Associate in WNS. I have completed my graduation in BCA (Bachelor of computer application) 

 Before joining the great learning. College life is one of the most remarkable and lovable times of an individual’s life. Unlike school life, college life has a different experience, and a person needs to have this experience in our life. College life exposes us to whole new experiences which we always dream of  experiencing after our school life.

Motivation behind joining the great learning program is that, It is not just a place to learn a new skill but mentors at great learning guide you all the way  On your path to a successful career.

Great Learning offers the ideal job placement support through relevant, High-quality courses and top-tier university partnerships. Its tri-monthly career fairs and integrated online learning solutions are more reasons to choose a certificate on the platform.    

Great Learning gave me the opportunity to get the skills I need to start my  career. I was looking for a job for a very long time, but the career assistance team helped me land a job before my program was completed. Thank you team Great Learning.

Overall a great learning experience and an excellent program for any professional or student who aspires to use Data Analytics skills to their existing domain knowledge and advance in their respective domains.

I really enjoyed the mentored learning sessions, as per the weekly content which was releasing I followed it, of course at times I was not able to cover everything but I tried, however, then  doubt clearing sessions and end to end case studies were very insightful, where all my doubts used to get clear, the optional sessions were very helpful, some extra hands on practise we used to do, some extra knowledge we used to learn apart from the content shared too.

Since the course, I’ve been smarter about handling data and have worked on numerous personal projects involving large datasets. The capstone especially gave me a good idea of what to expect in the workplace. I was able to move to a role in commercial sales Analytics just a few months ago and worked extensively with data intelligence software and data visualization tools. I’m grateful to the help that Great Learning has provided me in preparing for this next stage of career growth. I heartily recommend the course to anyone looking to gain skills in data science and business Analytics.
