Welcome to Data Scientists's Private Community

Data Analyst with 2 years of experience later joined  as machine learning researcher for a company abroad(only 3 months). Had to relocate back to India and confused about career. Should I stick on to machine learning or data analytics? Found that machine learning / AI opportunities are less than data analytics in India.

Career confusion

Analyst

Career confusion- Grapevine

I'm currently a Data Analyst with 6 months of experience. I would like to get into AI/ML and Robotics field.

Planning to transition from my current role next year. I'm not sure whether I should become a Software engineer (preferably Backend) or ML Engineer or some Data Science role.

I'm currently in Bangalore. Open to relocating to any state (or even country).

In the longterm, I want to do something that has both software and hardware in it.

Please explain your advice if you can afford some time.

Thanks in advance.

P.S. I accidentally put student in this app.

I'm confused. What next after Data Analyst?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I have been applying for data analyst and junior data scientists role for the last 3 months but not getting enough response. I apply for more than 20+ jobs on daily basis lekin tab bhi kuch nhi ho rha hai. I have built 2 project on ML, 1 on NLP and 3-4 good project on data analytics. I graduated in May 2023 then I decided to learn Data science ( uske pehle bhi college me 3-4 mahine thoda padha tha) now I have so many doubts regarding my career and rejection
- Just because I'm fresher that's why they are not choosing me ??
- I'm from non-tech ( Bsc) .. isiliye
- or current job market hi accha nhi hai 

Ab to kabhi kabhi apne decision pr regret bhi hota hai.

To solve the experience issue I have decided to do a decent marketing job (only for 6-7months) so that I can show it in my CV aur kuch savings bhi kr lu.

Please guide me if you guys have any advice for me.

Thanks.

Need Advice

Both pro-cons i'm seeing currently is:

Data science:
~ future technology
~ more interesting & diverse work 
Downside: so much competition as every college now opening new AI ML dept
& Because of low entry criteria anyone can jump to this field little interest or few online courses

Data Engineer:
~ Entry point is bit tough as Specific technology knowledge req which is generally not being taught in colleges,
Hence less competition 
Downside: Identical & boring tasks mostly

Which seems to win in near future in terms of pay or job security?
Any suggestions as welcome!

Is it possible to make a career shift from data analyst to data scientist then to AI field ? & What is the effective way to achieve

Career Switch suggestion

Software Analyst

I feel data science and analytics has glass ceiling in tech , maximum people can go is head of data and analytics and salary is max 1.5 cr for Indian startup and people will be laid with more experience for analytics .  I feel to have stable career in tech cto and engineering has better long term career as salary can be as high as 2.5 to 3 cr , more job opportunities and more market demand . Data science and analytics is a dead career even world is jumping for llm.

Long term career in tech

I'm a data analyst with 3+ YOE and want to connect with fellow analysts to know more about what kind of work they do and skills they use daily. I've been a part of the AIM community but it's full of spams usually. Anything else apart from it?

In my last job I felt like I haven't grown at all in terms of skills. I'm currently giving interviews for SBA/LBA roles but not able to ace them.

Also it would be helpful if someone could share some resources to practice the analytics case study questions.

Thanks!

Is there a analytics community for India?
