Anyone here exit from analytics consulting to DS? I am finishing my MSDS degree soon, trying to gauge if I could land a senior DS role.

Current comp is 170k, and feel like I’ll have to take a pretty large paycut if I leave consulting

Hi! Does anyone know what kind of knowledge is needed to crack the Data Scientist interview at Google?

I'm currently working in Marketing Analytics (primarily using SQL and a bit of pyspark). Apart from mastering SQL, I wanted to know from people working at Google what does it take to get there as a Data Scientist? (I'm very interested in Strategy Ops)

I plan to another 6-8 months in preparation and upskilling myself before I even apply.
Any help and guidance is appreciated! Thanks :)
