I am currently working on getting my bachelor's degree in business analytics w/ a minor in computer science. I want to eventually become a data scientist but I am unsure of the required YOE, if any, or how hard it is to land that type of job. I am also concerned that I don't have relevant any relevant experience to jump right into the industry. How high of a hurdle is it from business analytics to data science? Any advice for an aspiring data scientist on how to move forward after my bachelors?

Hey, would really like some advice here.

Recently graduated and am looking for full time roles. I've had four different internships, the last two in tech, and I've been doing marketing, specifically Product Marketing and looking for full time roles there. I was recently offered a role as a Product Marketing Associate - the team members sound great and responsibilities sound really up my alley, but they are locked in at 50k. I understand I'm a new grad and all, but is this a low-ball offer?

Deloitte's offer is 7K more and in a cheaper area. Equal interest in both jobs, slight preference for Mercer for people + culture. Leaning towards Mercer because I graduate in Dec and can start in Jan vs having to wait until next summer for Deloitte + location (although higher COL)
