for someone who is transitioning into data science and wants to become a data scientist, would you recommend getting into an analyst role first? or aim for a data scientist internship ?

************

level.fyi – check salary

***********

maang – dsa seriously

startup – dsa is secondary

***********

real in free time

create own project

**********

setup git hub profile

********

dont wait for experience and showcase or brag in interview

*******

presentation skill

********

day to day problem can be solved in project

participate hackathon or leetcode and get good rank and show and tell in interview

*****************

90% – done by data engineer

10% done by DA and DS

But the work needs to be impactful

DA is client facing and more spotlight

DS – in the corner of office and nobody will notice you

you need to think a lot

you need to experiment

****************

some company give more value to DA and some to DS.

*********

you can crack DS role as a fresher also.

**********

collect own data set using web scrapper and make dashboard based on that.

************

Networking through slack and linkedin for referrals

*****************

Look at the JD carefully.

Apply for experienced jobs even if you don’t have experienced, they might pick you up.

If you have enough projects to gain experience then number of years experience won’t matter much.

Gain experience equavalent to high number of years experience.

***********

AI can’t remove job, we will just move to more skillful jobs.

You need to constantly upgrading yourself to be relevant to the industry.

****************

Wikipedia is a good source to learn statistics and maths.

Medium blogs will also help you.

Find new concept in stats or maths and apply.

**********

Working as DA helped me in DS job.

You can become better DS if you have worked as DA before.

******

dATA has a story

you need to be patience to listen ot the story.

you are tied with the data

data is the next oil.

There are lots of open ended statement, you need to interpret the data,

take judgemental call

be risky

have maths behind you

its not very hard to master

everything is done t hroug coding

be strong in your fundamental

and try to experiment a lot.

*****************

MLOP – combination of data scientist and software engineer.

data scientist – only building the model

MLOP – ML Engineer- putting the model into production

Ml gets more than DS

****************

write efficient code
