Before you decide

Demand is only one input

Learning effort

Weeks

A few weeks of focused practice usually gets you to useful — often alongside something you already know.

Transferability

Narrow

Mostly useful in a small set of roles or one tool ecosystem.

Rising ads don’t mean you should learn this.

Your interests, the time you have and what people in the work tell you matter more. Effort and transferability are editorial estimates, not measurements.

Next step

Numbers only go so far. Ask someone who uses dbt.
