For data scientists who went from consulting to product/tech companies, how did you prepare for the move? I am a new grad with a data science masters and working as a data scientist in consulting. However, I want to work as a product data scientist after a year or two. I am not worried of SQL, but don’t have direct experience in AB testing. I wonder in this case, how can I prepare my resume and interview especially in AB testing and product sense? Thanks!

I went from T2 to product DS, and yes AB testing is a challenge. I leveraged my survey design and cutting experience on this dimension because you deal with some of the same concepts (sample size, conditional probabilities). Also brush up on product style PM interviews, those came up consistently

I'm a first yr attorney at an insurance firm and am in the process of interviewing for an in-house position at a tech company. The position is pretty much generalist, but I get the impression I'd be working mostly on SaaS and partnership transactions. I definitely think I would like the transactional work better, but I am concerned about the long-term earning potential vs. partnership. How common is it to eventually make $400k+ in-house/how difficult is it to transition back to a firm? Thanks!
