Navigating Early Career Challenges in Data Analytics
I am set to graduate in 2025 and have applied to multiple organizations, reaching out to various hiring managers. Despite my efforts, my resume was not shortlisted for the initial rounds. After numerous attempts, I finally secured a position as a Data Analyst at an organization that pays 12k. Currently, I am working on a Gen-AI project, developing an LLM model. Although I expect a higher salary, I accepted the offer due to the fear of unemployment.
Shall I be concerned that the low salary might create a negative impression on my resume??
Usually the good work comes with good pay. I highly doubt that you'll be learning a lot in this role. Maybe you can tell us a bit more around what exactly are you working on, what's your daily job? You don't wanna get stuck doing redundant jobs, like verifying llm response.
@Joomanji Okay so I will tell you the project I am working upon. w are making an application as well as a web app for a real estate company. Both the platforms will have LLM chatbot. The idea is to develop a chatbot through amazon bedrock which will generate an sql query and through it fetch data from the database and response. I hope I am able to response. we are currently orking on something like that.
That's interesting. Are you working alone on this or is it like a large team working on it. Ideally you would want to do the major heavy lifting.
To improve the performance and make it market ready, you need to input a lot of examples in it. You don't wanna do that manual job.
So think accordingly.
Also if you have this skillset I'm sure you can get way better offers, easily north of 12-15 LPA
Why settle for less?
You are developing LLM model! If you do it successfully, then sky is the limit. Focus on learning for initial 2 years and then switch.
@Homosapien Hi, thanks. I am trying but the fear of falling ehind gets me. I am 21 and I see people at my age with bigger achievements but I will also try to focus upon learning. Thanks.
