searching for advice

Hi Reddit community,

I’m looking for advice and guidance.

I have a Master’s degree in Biology and spent several years doing research in plant biology. Later, I completed another Master’s degree in Agricultural Economics in Italy. Because of this background, I have some experience with statistics and data analysis.

I speak French and English fluently and I also have a good level of Italian. However, I have been struggling to find a job for the past two years.

About four months ago, I decided to focus on learning Power BI to move into the data field. I took the PL-300 certification exam twice — the first time I scored 400 and the second time 530. I am studying hard because I believe this certification could really help me open doors in the job market.

At this point I feel quite discouraged, but I’m still trying.

I’m currently in Italy and I’m looking for companies that offer training programs, internships, or entry-level positions in Power BI / Data Analysis.

If anyone knows companies that train and hire entry-level candidates, or has advice on how to break into this field, I would be very grateful.

Thank you very much for any guidance.
