Over the past few years, we’ve received thousands of
messages from our students asking for career advice.
Some came from recent college graduates with no
professional experience looking to get into the ever-
expanding data science field; others came from tech
industry professionals wondering how to hone their
transferable skills and land a job in business intelligence or
data science. There were also those who work part- or full-
time in a completely unrelated field—ones who study on a
tight schedule with admirable commitments to transfer
into data science.
