What Getting A Job In Data Science Might Look Like
- Had a 3.8 GPA in my major
- Took FORTRAN while there (wasn't good at it)
- No internships
- I LOVE math, and loved my time in school
- The "Housing bubble" burst (the kick-off for the Great Recession), and at the same time I was lucky to be offered a Teaching Assistantship at WPI.
- Moved to Worcester and finished my MS Full-Time (Finished 2010)
- Used SAS & R in classes
- Still no internships (economy was bad, and I had yet to learn a ton about job searching, networking, and didn't make use of the career center)
- Thought I wanted to teach at a Community College, but two Professors asked if I'd be interested in interviewing at a local utility company (and the company happened to be 3 miles from my parents house).
- Delivered market research, segmentations, research posters, and communication campaigns designed to support managed care organizations (MCOs), pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), and disease management (DM) clients.
- Vistaprint sells business cards and other marketing products online. Their main customer base is small businesses.
- Managed a team of analysts to optimize the Vistaprint website.
- Held a bunch of other roles and work on a ton of different projects across Analytics
- Contant Contact offers email marketing solutions. Also Ecommerce, also targets small businesses.
- Checking the validity of a model that is already in place
- Improving upon how they currently do testing. And then automating!
- Trying to identify seasonal customers in their customer base.
- Learning lots of new things!
- Pivot tables
- V-lookups
- Write a simple macro using the "record" button to automate some data manipulations
- These types of things can make you look like a WIZARD to some other areas of the business. (Not saying it's right, just saying that's how it is)
- And I've used these things THROUGHOUT my career.
- Data quickly becomes too large for Excel, I've found that anything higher than like 400k rows (with multiple columns) becomes a real chore to try and manipulate.
- Pretty visualizations, can be interactive, quick, point-and-click.

- Tableau can also take data in directly from SQL (a .csv, and a bunch of other formats as well).



A quick note. I put my Coursera classes I've taken under "accomplishments" in LinkedIn. It's not a bad idea.
- I've been to Vegas, Orlando, Barcelona, Windsor Ontario, NJ and MD for Work.
- A book you want to read that is relevant? You can probably expense it.
- A course on Coursera that is relevant? You can probably expense it.
- They'll send you to conferences sometimes
- - Was at the Jupyter Pop-up March 21st and I'm attending the Open Data Science Conference in May.
- Don't be shy about asking your boss if there is budget available.
- I got a pretty sweet severance package.
- Tip! You can collect unemployment and severance at the same time!
- Resume (they updated both my content and formatting).
- Cover letter tips (description below)
- Networking
- Interviewing
- Negotiating!

- Tell me about a time you explained a technical result to a non-technical audience?
- Tell me about a time you improved a process?
- Tell me a time about working with a difficult stakeholder, and how it was resolved?
- Be ready for an entry level coding problem or SQL problem is the job description asks for one of those skills.
