Mentee Question

Asked by Fakhruddin Hussain

I am currently working as a Data analyst, but I am mostly doing work of automation using API, in python. I want to transition my career as a data scientist. How should I prepare for the interviews, how to prepare my CV to get call back for interviews and what skills I should learn to land a good paying job. Can you help me transition my career in Data Science and Machine Learning?

Before you start giving interviews, you need to cover basic topics in data science and ML. You also need to make sure to pitch relevant experiences in your resume. You need to understand your current proficiency in different topics and prepare based on curated roadmap.
