What tech job to get before becoming Data Analyst?

I’ve been studying Data Science for quite some time now and would love to apply but don’t feel ready yet. What tech position would you recommend for someone that has 0 tech experience and has only studied data science for about 5 months? A position with a decent source of income would be a plus

I was told a mailroom position is the best way to get into a tech company hands down, which doesn’t seem right to me.
