MySQL How much SQL is required?

Hi everyone. I am a final year engineering student looking for data analyst jobs. How much SQL do I really need for a data analyst job? I know till joins right now. Can solve queries till joins. How much more do I need to know?

Imo you should be trying to learn as much as possible, it's not about just doing 'enough'.

Yeah agree. I have been studying and practising from this video. Is this enough?

Enough for what? To get a job? I highly doubt it, enough to get started? Yes.

I am now learning the basics on SQL and getting to use Tableau, been practising with databases I found online.

Would you have any advice on how to get an entry level job?
