I'm helping a friend find talent for a 🚀rocketship start-up. They have a really exciting role to join the internal Strategy team, working across the entire business driving growth. Amazing, amazing people/culture, great comp and benefits. Some details: looking for someone with 3+ years of experience, 100% remote with occasional travel to London, NYC, SF, need someone who is a strong strategic thinker and bonus points if you've worked in consulting/banking/financial services. DM me for info!
Yes! I found it to be a very rewarding change! It can be a bit tough to get in but if you network, it’ll be the great start to a culture that will help you climb the ladder.
Please share tips. I’m in healthcare and want to change also
What is data science?
Data science is using data to objectively look into any problems or bring solutions or improvements you can bring to business, healthcare or any industry.
The data can come from a variety of sources (depending upon which industry you are referring to) such as customers spending time on websites, how many clicks they do, or patient records in healthcare and assessing costs related to procedures etc.
The person who will analyse this data needs to know the software and statistical tools so that they can extract the information, and trends, or predict any outcomes.
It's possible. Try to gain as much experience working with data as possible. This could involve working on projects within your current job or volunteering for data-related roles outside of work. The more experience you have, the better equipped you will be to make the transition into data science. It's what really made the difference for me.
Any suggestions for volunteering for data-related roles? I feel like I need a coach or tutor to teach me!
nope, but that is my plan. I'm currently in Informatics and I do write some analytical reports through the EHR. I would love a data engineer job dealing with clinical data.
Same!!!
If you’re in Houston, TX my research team will be hiring someone to manage & export our data using Qlikview & Excel.
Would love to hear more. I have a masters in health informatics and am currently in the healthcare field. Would love to connect, unable to send message on here. Thanks!
