[Music] [Applause] so welcome everyone this is ritesh and what i have for you today so first of all the subscribe do subscribe to my channel if you are new to this channel if my videos are making sense to you do hit the like button if you are liking this video that that's the only thing that you can do for me so what i have for you today we are going to talk about tips and tricks with respect to tap certifications specialist or tax tableau desktop qualification so there are five important points that is more related to the time when you are giving the examination okay at that point of time what you should do or how you should prepare yourself point number one network issues i put this point over here because i know a lot of people don't know the importance of this very particular point but it's very important for example this is the latest latest example that i can give it to you that uh the gentleman participated so he had some issues during the examination pablo specialist however he's saying that i had some issues and you i could not reach to the proctor practice the person who will be like online person he he will be able to see you so your camera would be on if you are right there in during the examination and somehow if your connection gets interrupted in between or you get disconnected then what you should do so in this case he was lucky enough that he got another chance and he passed that very particular examination as well so prevention is better than cure what you can do is you can test yourself in advance itself there is a link over there loyalist exam services this is the third party that would act on behalf of tableau and will take your examination this there is a link over there and with this link you will be able to test so i'll try to making sure that this link is there at the top of the disk at my youtube description and maybe i can show you what is there so this is there you can connecting to the proctor click here i'll click over there this will be at my youtube description so you can go and you get it it may require up to 60 seconds so while it goes on we'll talk about the other points and we'll see whether we are eligible for or not for this examination connectivity wise so you can you should test this before itself otherwise on the day you may have to cancel or you know postpone that very particular examination because they will test at that very point of time and after that they'll ask you whether you would like to go with it for example if there is an issue with the latency they will ask you whether you would like to go or not at that point of time you should say no actually don't just go because if something happens they would they will not take the responsibility tips for improving a network connection use a hardware connection so that is recommended wireless connections are more likely to fluctuate i have experienced that so please please please use a hard hardwired connection and sure no other devices are using large amounts of bandwidth like streaming video if you are having mobile as well you just you know maybe switch it off actually you know you don't want to get disturbed as well and don't connect that to wi-fi or any of the other devices right restart your router even if nothing is happening or if for example if i go back to my test over there let me see the result it is still going on but if you can see the image over there it says let me enlarge it and it says operating system okay internal speed is everything is okay but if internet speed is not up to the mark you may have to call your service provider as well so this is my first suggestion to you second was google help button you know it's not a mystery or a hidden secret now but i'll i'm going to tell you about the help button as well you can make use of that as well you can make it make use of google you can make use of help button when i say you can make use of help button i want to tell you that i want to tell you i want to change your life this one and open help this is allowed so at that point of time you will be doing that and it is convenient you will just go and help and search you know you can search as well especially for the one mark questions this can be really really handy okay this is my second suggestion third one name to fame yeah now while you are trying to solve the different problems you can see task 7 task 8 on the right hand side below can you see that these are the question numbers that i have with me so that i can you know if you want to revise and also if you are doubtful about that you can have task 7 underscore d so that at the end you can just directly jump over to these two to those heats over there right so that's your name to fame other thing is you should also name your data sources in some of the questions you will be joining two different tables and you may forget about the same let me tell you what i'm going to say for example if i go back to this one and if i go back to sheet 41 oh no not 41 but i have to go to this join and say data source so in some of the question for example samples these are different data separate example sample superstore or coffee chain you are you have joined that and the next because the question was like that only that you had to join but in the next question you just need a sample super store so it won't look like that right it so you should name that that this is joined i would say join and i would remain i would say join sample superstore and coffee coffee chain so that you remember you know sometime you tend to forget that this is the join what sort of join is there and you may land up to some other data source so it is very important that what you are doing this question number one related to join between samples personal and coffee question number two if it is related to sample superstore only it should it should very clear over there so don't mess it up files missing here sometimes it has it had happened to me and i'm not sure why it happened but a data source was missing right so you you you have got a remote machine from there you are trying to solve the questions with the help of tableau software but if the data source is missing and the proctors are not the technical force from the tableau so please inform the proctor and take a screenshot you know because take a screenshot only if they allow you maybe they won't allow you because there is a recording of that session as well so they will uh tell you that okay we'll uh you know watch the recording at that point of time if there is there is no this is not a data source over there for a particular question you can just tell them that boss this data source is not there please uh check this and you can note the time rate after one hour uh you ask this question after one hour or one and a half hours or so so that's when you will write an email to the supported tableau certification or something like that i'll get you that email yes at my youtube description as well so you can define that okay at that point of time i had this issue and talked to the proctor with respect to the file missing so they can just directly go to that very particular point and they can come back to you so that you may get few extra marks for those questions if the file is missing they may grant you three marks for that or you may have to retake whatever but still it is helpful it is important for you don't panic don't stick to one question that means when if you are you know if you think that you are very good at calculation and one calculation is not coming you're not getting the answer don't stick to that move to the other question you know move to the next hands-on question don't waste your time remember that you have to cover if you are giving a specialist it's one hour if you are giving a tableau desktop associated to hours so time does matter so respect the time you can come back so there will be an option to flag the question as well so one is at the heat level i am telling you that okay if you are if you have a doubt about any question you can do uh this question task number something and you said doubt that's what i did the task number whatever number you have to give like question number nine or something like that and doubt the other thing is that at the competition link itself they will give you an option to flag your question so that at the end it's quite visible to you you can flag that question that you have not been able to answer but at the end you can go you will have some time at the end show that you have some time at the end like half an hour or so to revise and after that you can revise so don't stick to one question and you know because ensure that you have covered all the questions and after that you have some time to revise as well so these were my top five suggestions hope you liked it and if you have liked it do hit the like button do subscribe to my channel and
