I work as a Junior BI Analyst who joined a project using Unix . The course helped me a lot to better understand the production scripts and I am sure I will be able to write my own simple scripts to help me automate my routine tasks. I got a complete overview of options I have for my work. If there was something not 100% clear to me during the course, it was always clearly explained later in another section. Thanks to this course I also discovered in which areas I had more room for improvement.
