Hello everyone what are the chances of me getting a graduate masters in DS and being certified in some Microsoft in relation to data science improve into getting a job? Is a certification in Azure through Microsoft required or worth it? I have a data analyst certification already.

Can't really give you a percentage, but can say that consulting firms and non-technical recruiters do like cloud certs. And that getting DS interviews with a grad degree is much easier that without, though the market is quite impacted with MS grads already

Over time, a good firm will cert you or do a masters degree. Technically, you need neither. With that said, if the doors are shut in your face, get the masters degree. If that doesn't land people interested in you, get a minimum certification from Microsoft, Salesforce or Adobe and get the company to pay for your next levels instead of you.

The other would mean taking a year off work and pursuing the LL. M, Thanks for help
