We are trying a new event format this time. Instead of presentations on technical topics, we will have a panel of experienced Data Science professionals discussing all things related to building a career in Data Science. The topics we will cover include, but are not limited to:
how to find your first DS job, what to expect from an interview for a DS position, growing in your DS role, what the field of Data Science will look like in a few years, etc.
Our panellists are Vicki Boykis, Alexey Grigorev and Emily Robinson.
