Hypothesis. Lack of domain expert input is the largest flaw in analytics.

Most analysts don't bother to do basic KD interviews, not to mention incorporating expert knowledge in probabilistic models. This spans everything from heuristics defining sales ops to advanced ML black boxes running $B projects. Worse, this is the standard in exec decisions; financiers pitch and invest, but often can't even explain what a company does beyond the industry it's in.

Hi, I have Cleared technical round for automation testing. I got a oral confirmation from HR that I was selected. But not receiving any confirmation mail of selection or documents submission.

Hey folks,

I have my phone screening interview coming up soon for an L6 Senior applied scientist position for Tax classification team. I was wondering if any if you can provide any sort of help on how to prepare better for this interview. It's a pretty big deal for me, and I really want to Ace that interview.

Just got another rejection... Is exiting to FAANG or MB really this hard? Trying to go tech.. or mbb, but not getting anywhere. I have 2 masters (mba, ms) from top schools, been in consulting for over 10 years, I am confident that I know my stuff well..but still I keep getting rejected. Interviewed with Google, Amazon, Cisco, McKinsey, and a few others and every-time there is something that is not a match... are the hiring managers looking for like 100% match? That will never happen!!!

Hi all, Can someone help with interview questions with the Information Security Auditor role? Please

I am stupidly rejecting recruiters with legit offers because I am waiting for The One. The offer to end all offers. But they are taking entirely too long to notify me. They keep telling me to hold on.

Any advice for understanding whether sourcing would be a good match for your personality/innate skill set?

Im pretty extroverted, I have been told in reviews that I peak in verbal communication, and I have really loved conducting expert interviews in DDs.

However, I’ve worked some sales jobs in the past, and I had a hard time with the variability and staying positive bad times when nothing is sticking.

About to interview with Neuberger Berman, hadn’t heard of them before. Anyone have any thoughts on their culture and WLB?

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA

I think something is wrong with the way I wrote my resume. Get dinged without an interview for a few roles (S&O, biz ops, nothing crazy) but when I send my resume directly to hiring managers I now have two final rounds scheduled? HYP undergrad, H/S MBA, McK Sr EM, previous tech experience 😑

My firm’s IT (especially system saving and file locating function) is so bad 😐😞 and they keep doing updates no one asked them for just to mess with the stuff we already got a hang of without doing anything about the issues we actually need fixed. Anyone else in a similar boat? Do you bill the client for the time it takes to fix the IT issue (or IT inefficiency generally, like time taken to find a file in a convoluted system)? Or is that supposed to be our non-billable time?

Help! I was headed to the 7th Circle of Hell but took a wrong turn and ended up at Cadwalader! Can anyone tell me how I make it back? I can't stand it here!

I applied for a position through a recruiter and made it through the interview rounds with the actual company and received a verbal offer, but haven’t heard back since. Am I able to reach out directly to HR for updates or does all communication have to be filtered through the recruiter?

2nd year assoc. here. Finding myself spending 3-5 hours researching/analyzing issues that should only take 1-3 hours. I find myself questioning - for every assignment - is this the issue I was asked to look into? Did I read that case right? Does this analysis make sense? And I end up reading the same cases over and over. Does anyone have advice for being more confident/efficient on tasks, especially research?

Should you get paid more to go into the office?

Is it a good idea to invest in your UK pension fund over the max your employer will contribute/match? This may potentially lower income tax but then one can't really access the pension pot till retirement. Or is it better to invest post-tax income into a stocks and shares ISA to avoid capital gains tax? TIA!

Hi all,i have been taking interviews for my department since the last 3 months.Should the company be paying me for the extra efforts?

Been on a few dates with this guy and he literally keeps using the washroom every 10-15 mins!

I'm planning to transition to Data Science. What should be the key technologies that i need to learn and add to my resume to make this work?

Thanks for your suggestions.

Anyone have any suggestions for front end guis for users to run python code? I’ve created a few tools for webscraping data, automation, and modeling but non technical users freak out when they try to run the code themselves. Any suggestions? (Have tried Juypter Notebooks and a few other IDEs)

What do you think when associates/senior associates misspeak on a concept during a meeting or interview?

I need to do a timeline with lots of information over a long period of time. I wanted to that in Tableau, but partner will not pay license and data is sensitive so I cannot use Tableau public.
Do you have suggestions?
The requirements are the following:
- No online input data upload (so local editing)
- The produced output file must be local and easily exportable and readable
-timeline must be interactive (filter/click/zoom in/out/view detals etc.)
- free

Any kind of help is really appreciated

Quick survey: Do you guys think having a template package to envelope an ML model as an application would be helpful. The package could contain boiler plate template for unit test, docker image, CI/CD, database connectors etc and act as a starting point for doing that. Tech firms usually have that internally but limited options in open source.

Looking for technical data analyst in Austin, tx (also have remote available) to join a series E startup. Need strong python & sql experience. A lot of data munging and cross-functional work. Love to chat if this makes sense. Cheers!

I was hired a few months ago by D to do data science. I am not doing data science currently, is there a way I can switch roles internally? Should I talk to my coach? Or should I just start looking for a new job. I’m starting to feel that the field is so hot rn my small stint at D won’t be a big deal to other firms.

Coming to the realization that consulting is not for me (tech person) feeling angry that salaries at D will never be on pair with FANG and that leadership is not tech focused. For example you could be a soul contributor at fang making 240k and people at Deloitte wait 10+ years to earn that as Senior Managers because they need to climb the corporate ladder. It seems super clear cut to me now, if you want to make money in tech don’t join consulting firms. Am I wrong?

Anyone know of an alternative to StackOverflow for asking tech questions? The community is super toxic and I'm looking for a place I can casually ask questions that might seem dumb without being hrangued for not providing an essay proof of the research I've already done. Or some sort of buddy system where I can ping a person of relevant experience those questions. It's better to poke someone's brain for a minute than to spin in circles reading docs/dead end articles sometimes.
