I'm not an IT professional myself, but I do know other people who are, and I have also watched some YouTube videos about how to land a job in the industry. You can check out Eli the Computer Guy on YouTube - he has made some videos about job interview and similar things. His channel can be found here:

I suggest you look around YouTube for other channels, and also search for more information using a search engine, as well. What you are looking for is anything and everything that you can give you an edge at the job interviews, such as knowing what to expect.

who you know, and now
what you know. Another useful tip is to be prepared to give concrete solutions to problems.

If it turns out to be too tough finding a job, you might want to ask around among your former data analytics student pals, or possibly even a teacher, and see if they know about a job opening.
