Hi Fishes,
I have recently joined Axis corporate office virtually on 29th March 2022. I have keen interest and hence wanted to pursue Data Science and ML journey because im more or a technical guy. I have 2 years and 3 months of experience in the same. As the Notice Period ended, I joined Axis. But I’m thinking the BA role i have in here is a non technical one. What should i do?

I’m pretty confused. It’s few days only but i don’t know I’m not getting a good feeling now.

Please help.

I’m also thinking if same. It’s just a start now, idk maybe i get to know new things or maybe the WLB is good. I will have to wait. And also, what you were saying, i will wait here to see how it goes and side by side think of what i need to do further and plan accordingly. Will start applying after i have atleast some experience of this BFSI industry too. That would help. This is the action plan right now. Also, it’s never to late to start so i can also do that. You too can!!

BA role is supposed to be non technical. It more oriented on business process side. Not sure why you had joined AXIS on a BA role when you are keen on DS/ML. Is it because of CTC hike?

At your current exp. level, you should focus more on enhancing you tech. skill instead of switching just for some hike.

From what I remember I think you asked one question on this platform about getting a BA role and later on moving to DS side, right? If not then I will suggest you to find another post similar to yours and I’ve explained all the things that you have mentioned.

My firm typically does insurance defense, but we take plaintiffs cases here and there.

This is my first experience with this, but it’s hard for me to reach my hours as is, without spending time on non billable cases like this with no assurance that I’ll see billable credit at the end.
