Because too many script kiddies in the market

So what??they need output and that can be fullfil with low wage bachelor

Product Manager

Because some of them are research roles. Where you need to publish your work or patent the process.

If all their all requirements are satisfied by skilled bachelor, why do they need MS or PhD?

Hello guys.
I am really confused with both of these topics about which one to choose , I am changing my career domine , currently working as automation engineer, having a thought to shift data scientist role but due to Chat gpt and other AI tools I feel data science role might not available for future . Need your help , which field I should choose for secure future.

software engineering vs data science.

DevOps Engineer

I am currently working in Accenture as a backend developer. Do you think its wise to change the technology at this moment. I have around 3 years of experience. And i am not getting any learning opportunities in my current company. 

Also what is the roadmap to learning Data Science?

How should I change my technology from Java to Data Science

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Hi,

I have 2 years of experience in analytics and now considering a career shift to data science.

I am planning to take the GRE this year to pursue a master's degree in data science, either in the US or Europe.

Could you people please advice me on country to choose and the steps I should take to achieve my goal?

Business Analyst

Hi all, we all know how messed up the market is right now. I currently have a work experience of 1.6 years,and I am thinking if I should go for a masters in CS abroad or not. Considering the market scenario abroad I am a bit afraid to take the big leap, but right now I can see the scenario is not much better in India as well, facing difficulty in switching also. I would like to concentrate on one line - masters or job switch. Please guide me.

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Hey everyone, happy to answer any questions around Data Science/ML/AI and making a career within it

A brief about me, I work currently as a Sr. ML Engineer at an Indian unicorn startup 
I graduated 5+ years ago and have since worked as a Data Scientist / ML Engineer at an ecommerce company and social media company. My designations have changed based on the industry requirements and work too changed based on that.

Would love to take questions on what it means to be an ML Engineer, my early learnings from a career in data science, and thoughts on AI.

Look forward to all questions :)

Data Scientist

Hi!

I'm currently doing my Masters from tier 1 University in India and have 4 years of experience working as a Data Scientist in an MNC.
When I go for a job search for a Data scientist role soon, will my job experience before Masters be considered and given a role according to the seniority?

Experience before Masters

Welcome to Moving Abroad's Private Community

Currently working as a full stack developer with 2+ exp 

I'm planning to do my masters in Data Science? 
is it good to do masters in Data Science or General Computer Science 
since my work experience gets null if I do my masters in Data Science 

what are your suggestions ?

Need suggestions on Moving abroad

Hi all. I'm currently an analyst (no exposure to DS). Is it worth doing an MS in Data Science? I do realise that upskilling without a degree is possible, but I also see a some MNCs prefer to have post grad candidates. 

Would be very helpful if you could share your experiences/ opinions.

MS in Data Science - Worth it?

Data Analyst

I'm a 28-year-old data scientist with approximately five years of experience, and I'm considering the pursuit of a Master's degree in the USA. My plan involves participating in a pathway program, beginning with three months of coursework at IIT Jaipur, followed by one year of studies at Drexel University in the United States, with a focus on Machine Learning Engineering. However, it's important to mention that Drexel University is currently ranked 98th in the United States. What are your thoughts on whether I should proceed with this plan, considering my age and experience?

Furthermore, I'm curious about your perspective on the expected salary range for someone of my age and experience in the USA, given my current salary of around 25 lakhs per annum (LPA) in India.

Indian Data Scientist’s Dilemma: Master’s in the USA with a 25 LPA Salary?

I want to pursue a master's degree in the field of data science, but I'm confused about whether to go to Australia or the Netherlands. Which is better?
also tell me some best universities for Data science.

Masters Degree in Data science

I am trying to transition from a business analyst to data scientist. I was wondering would a post graduation in the same be worth the expense and effort? Or having a significant presence in the community ( like kaggle, analytics vidya etc) is enough? 

If degree is a good to have then please recommend which one.

Thanks in advance!

Data science degree worth it?

In the world of machine learning, there are two distinct mindsets: classical statistical learning and modern neural networks. I’ve noticed that classical approaches feel like solving a complex puzzle—tuning loss functions, adjusting kernels, and balancing bias and variance. It's methodical and precise, requiring deep theoretical knowledge to optimize models for generalization.

On the other hand, neural networks often take a more brute-force approach. When performance drops, the first instinct is usually to "add more layers." Deep learning’s power lies in its ability to handle massive datasets and solve complex problems, but it often trades interpretability for accuracy.

What’s fascinating is how both approaches are converging. Deep learning is borrowing from statistical theory, while neural networks are becoming more explainable. In the end, the choice depends on the problem—whether you're fine-tuning a precise tool or building a powerful, scalable model. Both have their place, and often the best solutions combine the strengths of each.

The 2 types of Data Science/Machine Learning guys you see at work...

Analyst

I don’t get it, some people who works only in excel and have no knowledge of mathematics behind ML AI models. Also have no background in coding are calling themselves Data scientists. Is this really a justice with the role of data scientist??

Why some data analysts call themselves Data Scientists??

Hi everyone, I’m planning to goto USA for higher studies! But I’m not sure which course to take! I’ve done my BE in Information science and currently working as a software developer in a startup (spring boot) please suggest me the course which gives me good job opportunity in US! I can’t decide because I don’t know these factors and I’m not that considerate on passion. I’m kind of adaptive!

MS in Computer Science or Data science?

What are the essential skills for a successful career in data science?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Hey guys,

27M here. I am a Supply Chain Generalist now. I have a keen interest in Operations Research which is a very specialized field which involves applied mathematics to optimise the systems. From my research I have found that recruiters give a great emphasis on Masters degree for such roles

Getting a masters from abroad isn't affordable for me and to get a master's, I will have to slog for the GATE exam. I have graduated like in 2019. Don't recall anything will have to start from scratch will need minimum 2 years of time preparing alongwith job.

There is also another way where I can study the topics from MIT Open edu/coursera/nptel. And work on learning python and R. but it may never be prove my competence as opposed to a Full time masters degree from IITs

What is the best way forward? Since Operations Research is closely associated with Machine Learning as well many of you techies might help me. Do you emphasis on degrees when hiring for such roles?
