Anyone ever jump from Big 4 into senior/exec role and just feel like an absolute imposter? Were you shocked with what you learned either that you were overly capable or incapable of the role and what did you do about it?

I did it and did not feel like an imposter. There’s a good chance I was down level that Deloit because I’m WOC.

Hi there,
I’m a bit newer to data science and recently read through a few academic case studies on ethical fairness in ML/modeling. Would love to start a thread to hear some more from data scientist/ML perspective.
The most harmful example I came across was bias in ML for the criminal justice system.

Is anyone currently in a data science/ML position willing to share their thoughts/maybe an example based on experience? Thinking about how to actively prevent this kind of bias in future models
