MySQL installed but nowhere to be found on MacOS Mojave

I installed MySQL 5.7 using homebrew:
brew install mysql@5.7
As I understand, I am supposed to find mysql in /usr/local or /usr/local/bin but I see that mysql@5.7 was placed in /usr/local/opt.
So I tried adding that to the path:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/mysql@5.7/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
But still when I try to type mysql or mysql@5.7 in the terminal it says "command not found".
What am I doing wrong here? How do I get mysql to become available as a terminal command?

mysqlsh in the terminal works for me. I installed the MySQL Community Server and MySQL Shell from Oracle's binaries. I don't know if this is different when installed from the homebrew repositories.
I also had to add /usr/local/mysql/bin to /etc/paths and now the mysql command by itself works as well from anywhere.
