Hi @Data scientist.

Sharing my 2 cents

Firstly, many people will say that your salary is higher than avg salary at your level -which kind of is true as per average estimates available to gen. population

Secondly you might have self doubt about the market value of work or projects you have done in past/currently doing

Thirdly you might be also thinking about the brand value of your pedigree .

Well believe me the market and the employers want you to think the same -so that the next company with whom you interview can negotiate with you at their terms whenever you get a call from them.

So what should you do ..
-Understand what you bring to the table when you apply a job and even when you interview for the same.
- In case they offer you a role of your liking/fit negotiate properly to what you should get.... remember during COVID years many people got whatever was demanded as the market had low cost of capital (where as now organisations get their capital at higher costs and hence negotiating harder with future employees)
- Never stop upskilling - not just on technical stuff but also on soft skills (tools and GUIs change or get phase dout but algorithms and people/stakeholder management skills don't)

I have been in the corporate industry enough ( nearly 15yrs just in case your are wondering) to say one thing for sure : IF you are always upskilling and have confidence you will eventually land a role /job of your choice (provided you have the patience and financial strength to wait for it)

Cheers and All the best!

Well the most primary thing is I bid my time...I had to wait 4+ long years before my first organisation even considered me for a managerial role despite me having mentored and work-managed a couple of my juniors (so patience was key here)

Secondly, I had enough client facing experience by then for my seniors/ the industry to acknowledge my presence and my knowledge (mostly my doing)

Thirdly, I worked on enough breadth and span of projects/methodologies to gain enough domain expertise (here the credit partly goes to my ex-org for giving me the exposure)

Finally , I realised my worth and kept my confidence in place (not overconfident)and was ready to negotiate with my firm and other prospect firms for better pay and role (again my doing)

So luck and opportunities come to those who wait and also prepare for them !
