Interesting, definitely could be a possibility.
Thanks!

I think networking is going to be your best bet especially since these are huge companies that get so many applicants. When I got a referral at Meta my interview process accelerated so quickly. Try to highlight your data skills as much as you can as well as math and cs coursework. Master’s def helps but there is a huge need for technical talent so I think you should still be able to get hired.

Certificates are nice, but they’re like a cherry on top not necessarily the strongest thing to carry your application - at least from what I understand. If you understand the job description and have experience or knowledge that relates, apply and reach out to someone at the firm to get a referral. Talking to people at each firm will help a lot because they’ll be able to tell you if your profile is out of reach.

You’re right - it varies a lot which is why the process is tough, but keep going and talking to people! That’s your best bet.
