From Learning Data Analysis to Serving the Nation: Tunde’s Journey into the Civil Service
If you ask Tunde what keeps him going, he smiles and says, “People.” Growing up in a close-knit family, he was always the one everyone turned to for help fixing problems, explaining schoolwork, or finding ways to make life easier for others. That desire to help never left him; it became the quiet force driving his choices through school, work, and life.
Tunde’s curiosity and eagerness to learn shaped his career journey, though it didn’t begin in data or technology. He started in a support role, managing routine administrative tasks, but quickly recognized opportunities for improvement.
He saw how much more efficient things could be if decisions were based on data. Reports were processed manually, workflows dragged, and key insights were missing. Determined to make a difference, he set out to change that and to become part of a smarter, data-driven way of working.
That curiosity set something in motion. The same boy who once opened radios just to understand how they worked began searching for ways to understand how organizations worked through data.

Discovering RKY Careers Bootcamp
Tunde first heard about RKY through a colleague who described the bootcamp experience as life-changing. At first, he was skeptical. He had seen plenty of online courses that promised transformation but offered little support. However, when he visited RKY’s website and watched real people share genuine success stories, something clicked.
He saw people who looked like him people from different backgrounds, some with no prior data experience now thriving in data roles across various industries. That sense of possibility sparked something within him. “If they could do it,” he thought, “maybe I can too.”
With a mix of excitement and nervous anticipation, Tunde enrolled in the Data Analytics Bootcamp. For him, it wasn’t just about learning new technical skills; it was a bold step toward redefining his future and becoming someone who could create meaningful impact through data.

Experience at the Bootcamp
The bootcamp was unlike anything Tunde had experienced. From day one, he entered a supportive, collaborative, and hands-on learning environment.
Facilitators didn’t just teach tools they taught critical thinking, problem-solving, storytelling with data, and confident communication of insights.At first, Tunde struggled to keep up with classmates who seemed more experienced, but RKY mentors encouraged him to keep going.
Their guidance, feedback, and real-world projects showed him that learning is a journey, not a competition. Through hands-on projects, Tunde discovered data’s power to give people a voice and influence better decisions.
His favorite project analyzed public service delivery metrics, revealing how data could highlight gaps and improve outcomes.The experience reignited his passion for making a difference and strengthened his confidence in his abilities.
He learned to present insights clearly, collaborate effectively, and express ideas with confidence.
By the end, Tunde wasn’t just skilled he was transformed into a confident, data-driven problem solver.
Landing the Administrator Role Interview
Not long after completing the bootcamp, Tunde saw a job opening in the civil service, a role that combined data analysis with public administration. It felt almost too perfect, but he decided to apply.
When he received the interview invitation, he immediately reached out to his RKY mentor for guidance. Together, they prepared by reviewing common data-related questions and refining how he could connect his story to the organization’s mission.
During the interview, Tunde spoke with quiet confidence. He shared examples from his RKY projects, explained how he approached data-driven decision-making, and tied everything back to his passion for public service. For the first time, he wasn’t just answering questions; he was telling his story.
A few weeks later, he received the call that changed everything. He had been offered the position. It was a dream come true, the perfect blend of purpose and profession.
