Do people use the Georgia tech masters in analytics degree to switch careers (to a data analytics or data scientist role), or are most ppl already in those fields and just wanna move up? I’m finance and trying to figure out if the degree would help me transition into data analytics/data science?

I’ve known a couple consultants who’ve already been in analytics and gotten the degree, one of them did so to get out of a specific industry. I think it can certainly be used for transitioning, obviously depends on your background how much effort it will be to get the degree

What do hiring managers want to hear when they ask "What's your process?" because I don't think I have one.

And when I explain something from Lean UX or something then apparently that's too cookie cutter.

Confluent is a lucrative product to sell and has established SDR reps so there’s a good blend of inbound and outbound sales. Thoughtspot is more of a startup culture where most of the sales comes from outbound and it’s a tougher sell.
